bliss Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Hi there! I'm thinking about to re-partition my drive like this (because i want to use osx as my default os): On 300 GB (˝280 GB to use) Disc: 40 GB Primary with HFS+ and Mac OS X86 (Active) ˝200GB Primary with HFS+ for Files, Movies, Audio etc. 30GB Primary with NTFS for Windows XP 2GB Extended with Linux Swap* 8GB Extended with Linux ext3* so my problem is: 1. I want to share my files with Windows 2. when the 200GB partition would be FAT32, files cant be >4GB 3. when its NTFS i can't write under mac os and linux 4. when its HFS+ (like this example) i cant read/write under windows EXEPT there's a windows driver for HFS+ I tried macOpener but it didnt work. maybe theres another tool??? is it right that you can read/write HFS+ under Linux (with special kernel extensions???) how do you have partitioned your drive(s) and share your files with other OS?

Linux HFS+ support: http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-hfsplus Ive downloaded MacDrive 6.12 but for the love of god, I can't find a way to make my HFS+ partition be seen anywhere in Windows. Is there a different version of MacDrive that I'm not aware off?
