Viewing mac drives from linux

[MMatlock]

Hello, I installed linux on my hackintosh today, so I have osx86 and fedora core, however I was wondering two things. How can I get grub to boot the mac partition, and is there anyway to get linux to be able to read mac formatted disks natively. Thanks for your help!

As far as I know, Linux can natively mount hfs partitions, but not hfs+.

This is my grub.conf file to use as a guide -- I boot Windows, OSX and Fedora with it.

 

# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#		  all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
#		  root (hd0,4)
#		  kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hdc6
#		  initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hdc
default=1
timeout=7
splashimage=(hd0,4)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Linux - Fedora Core - 2.6.16-1.2122
root (hd0,4)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 ro root=LABEL=/ selinux=0 vga=788 quiet rhgb
initrd /initrd-2.6.16-1.2122_FC5.img
title Windows - XP Home - SP-2
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
title Mac OS X - Intel x86 - 10.4.6
rootnoverify (hd0,2)
chainloader +1

All three are on the same drive (hd0), and the Mac partition is the 3rd partition (hd0,2). Grub counts things from "0", not "1".

 

 

For mounting the hfs+ partition, I have this line in my /etc/fstab file:

 

/dev/hdc3	/mnt/MacOSX	hfsplus rw,umask=000	0 0

(I created the empty mount point folder /mnt/MacOSX before adding this line and rebooting)
