In the last couple of hours, I did a partition use "disk utility" in Mac, and then move to the linux, format the second partition into ext4. /dev/sdb3 on /media/GoFlexMac type hfsplus (ro,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks) /dev/sdb5 on /media/GoFlexLinux type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks) Thanks again and have a nice weekend, > > See, for example, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot_flag for a little more > information. > -- > Wolodja <[email protected]> > > 4096R/CAF14EFC > 081C B7CD FF04 2BA9 94EA 36B2 8B7F 7D30 CAF1 4EFC > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
