I recently installed Leopard 10.5.2 and I was wondering if there was any way to mount a a Linux partition on Leopard. The only method I saw was for PPC and was a little out-dated, any other methods?

 

SOLVED

 

Okay... I actually solved this one myself. I used the program ext2fsx found on: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/ Now with Leopard (Or tiger) you cannot use the current 1.3 version, you have to use 1.4d4 (developer beta version). That should install without any hassle. However, OS X can't mount my IDE drives on its own, so after I installed, I had to add the AppleNForceATA.kext to my extensions folder to get it to work. Unfortunately, the Linux drive is only read-only in OS X, but hey it's a stepping stone.
