I just sent this to Kristo, but I thought that everyone might be interested---I wanted to "just" click my way thru my other drives on my system & so I did a fair amount of Google time & this is what I came up with---
Got the answer for you on this one--I'm a old time MacHead & just moved to Linux--Have my Dual 1G Mirror-Door as Dual-boot & I wanted a good way to pull the OSX files over to the Linux side---You will need to mk(make)dir(directory) whatever you want it to be called--I have six partitions on four internal drives, So---mine looked like---
mkdir /mnt/osx mkdir /mnt/osx3 mkdir /mnt/storage mkdir /mnt/games mkdir /mnt/itunes mkdir /mnt/downloads
then I found what the partition numbers were & edited my /etc/fstab file-(used nano--in a terminal as root, type nano -w /etc/fstab--edit the file & control-x to save--it will ask you if that is what you want)---this is my fstab copy---
/dev/hda4 / ext3 defaults 1 1
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda6 /mnt/osx hfsplus defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb2 /mnt/osx3 hfsplus defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb4 /mnt/storage hfsplus defaults 0 0
/dev/hdc3 /mnt/itunes hfsplus defaults 0 0
/dev/hdd2 /mnt/downloads hfsplus defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,user 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 auto noauto,user 0 0
/dev/cdrom2 /mnt/cdrom2 auto noauto,user 0 0
note the HD (number)---hda - hdb - and so on--- I used the info from the parted program--info for that is available elsewhere--
Reboot & you will get a file in your main directory that is /mnt . Inside you will find all the drives you made directories for--you can just double-click & browse just like in OSX--I made a tab in the top toolbar for easy reach--Hope this helps---AND REMEMBER--DOUBLE-CHECK YOUR INFO BEFORE THAT SAVE---Linux "assumes" you REALLY know what you want when you do it--I've done 6 installs to get it right---Good way to learn???? Drove me mad at first--still have a "issue" with a USB2 cdrom--sometimes Linux won't "see" it---It's /dev/cdrom2--I'm still working on that one------
Happy Journey---
