It's a crude way of passing files, but I don't see a viable way. The Aqua Layer doesn't allow me access to Linux's "/usr/public" folder, even though I had set the permission to '666' - r/w for all.
The other option via Linux: Having to mount one of a zillion /dev and see if I can access OS X files from Linux appears daunting.
So the current de facto approach is to create symbolic links to each other's "public" folders and let the Super Users handle the transactions.

I am not quite sure *exactly* what you want to do, but look here for some tips on an extension to invoke ext2 (Linux) filesystem support from within Mac OS X:

Question: What is a simple way to allow sharing files between the two OSes?
You can also see your HFS+ (Mac OS) partitions from within Yellow Dog Linux:

If you have other questions not mentioned in those places, feel free to ask!
