Ubuntu uses ext filesystem. A prefpanel that enables OS X to mount your linux partitions can be downloaded here:

EXT2 FS:

Well, I finally installed Ubuntu yesterday, on a 2GB SCSI drive attached to an ATTO 2930. I think it took about 2 hours. But it was certainly worth the wait. It comes with a great GUI, and enough programs to keep me happy for a while. It comes with an image editor, FireFox, Open Office, and an immense amount of screen savers. Also comes with about a dozen games, including Connect 4. However, when dragging windows around, the graphics seem bit glitchy. Anyway, I originally formatted the drive as UFS. However, the installer reformatted it, and now the drive is not recognizable by Mac OS X. I dont know what format the drive now is, anyone have any ideas? And any ideas on getting Mac OS X to recognize it? Hey anyone know how to find system info (bus and processor speed) in Linux? Anyway, I got some extra CDs. If a bunch of people want I can send a CD or 2 out and it can get passed around.

Thanks

Chris P
