I have a hfsplus (Apple) and ext3 (Linux) partitions on a non-<Apple>boot drive. The hfsplus (Apple) is to be used as a port between the two OSes.
That is, I store docs on the logical disk 'Apple' to be shared by both OSes.
The problem is, neither user (Apple/Linux) has permission to access this partition (Apple). On the Linux side, I can't WRITE to the partition, however I an see the contents.
I've changed the permissions and ownership of the /mnt/Apple mount directory within Linux; but that only messed things up. Now I get flashing contents on the Linux side when I did a 'ln -l' via User prompt.
What does flashing data mean? Loss of identitiy/ownership?
As for the Apple side, now I can't even open the drive icon in Finder: "Permission Denied". This probably due to me screwing up permissions/ownership from the Linux side.
It appears I have to go under the covers as Super User once again.
I'm heading in the wrong direction here.
Question: How can I make an Apple partition freely available (read/write) to non-SuperUsers of both OSes?
Changing permission/ownership from the command line doesn't help.
Regards,
Ric.
