(By the way, if you go so far as to try both ext2fsx and Ext2 Filesystem, we would love to have a comparison report on this
mailing list!)

Clint, from what I can see, ext2fsx (Mac OS X Ext 2 Filesystem) is the only software for Mac OS X for viewing Ext2 or Ext3 filesystems. The program seems a bit buggy, howevever, in that I cannot override permissions on the volumes. I can edit my linux home folder, but that's all that I can change (even with permission override on and automount off). Preferences in general (besides mounting and unmounting) do not work. Otherwise, the software works great!

Thanks for the report! I wonder if the ext2fsx extension would allow me to mount a partition from a YDL (or any Linux distro) machine on my Mac OS X desktop over a local network? That would be extremely useful.


Best wishes,
Clint
