sharing partition between osX and linux

hi,

I was wanting to mount a partition of my hd which was formated by mac osX. During the formatting's process I've specified a partition to be a UnixFile System within the diskUtility of osX

Now the question is that I'm running an YDL(linux distribution) and I'm not able to:

-see any partition with fdisk under linux (ydl) and even not more this partition -mount the partition as : mount -t ufs /dev/hda7 /data I get: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda7, or too many mounted file systems

does anyone get through the same problem

Any help will be appreciate

mount -t ufs /dev/hda7 /data -o ufstype=44bsd

briner

use /sbin/pdisk instead of fdisk !!

Thanks for your suggestion, I'm surprised that it's not working!

I finally find out that the partition that I was using was not correct , we should use /sbin/pdisk.

i've tried then: mount -t ufs -o ufstype=44bsd /dev/hda5 /data/ and also with all the other options for '-t ufs' without success I'm trying to do this on a PowerBookG4

any other hints ??

thanks in advance
