![]() It's not just a few files that I wish to transfer to OSX. Why I'm not too keen on a network transfer is that we are talking about 5, 10, 20+ gigs of data. It also seems that if I were to load LinuxPPC on a partition that I could run it and load something like MTOOLS and read other DOS FAT disks and even a Linux EXT2 volumes and copy to either a PC formated FAT partition or Macintosh HFS+ partition (while under Linux running on the Mac) and make a transfer of file information, then later go back and mount that same DOS FAT or HFS+ disks under OSX to get at the data on the partition. I tried formatting/erasing the 2nd HD numerous times with Disk Utility and it would continue adding time to the process up to 22+ hours. Given the fact that there are tons of good utilities that could be of great potential use on the Mac OSX platform, why wouldn't they include EXT2 as a file type that is supported? Partition Failed Couldnt Unmount Disk Mac. It's seems to me that it doesn't make much sense that OSX can not read a LINUX EXT2 volumes, since much of OSX is based on the same UNIX architecture as LINUX.
