Of course, from time to time I get some problems in my FS but is not very frequent.
#FUSE EXT2 EL CAPITAN MAC OS#
So far, I have my /home partition in Linux formatted to hfsplus with no journaling, and then I can access my files from Mac OS X.
#FUSE EXT2 EL CAPITAN MAC OS X#
My idea was to have access to my /home partition from Mac OS X using this Paragon driver, but I don't suggest to do this setup. I found that the driver was very unstable, and it created corruptions to the filesystem that fsck was not able to repair neither in Linux nor in Disk Utility. Just for the record, I have tested Paragon ExtFS driver (trial version) on my MacBook Pro to write to ext4 partition in Linux. e.g.Īnd to unmount the filesystem you just use normal umount command (with sudo if used to mount the partition): It should be noted that you can only access that mounted filesystem as root/sudo. Use the ext4fuse command directly:Īlso as mentioned by Timothy in the comments you usually only need to use sudo if you're mounting outside your home directory or the disk (/dev/diskX) is only accessible by root:

Update: More recently I've found that fuse-ext2 has problems with certain newer ext4 features, so instead it is better to use ext4fuse ( port install ext4fuse or brew install ext4fuse).

But if you want to mount the partition into a system directory then you need to run it as root e.g: It may complain about not being able to write to the log file but it should still mount the partition into your home mount point. Combine the diskX and partition number Y like this /dev/diskXsY - e.g: This will list all partitions for all disks and amongst them you should see the relevant ones listed under the TYPE column as Linux. when installed using MacPorts port install ext2fuse) - then firstly you need to work out where the Linux partition is: If you're wondering what the command line is to mount an ext4 partition using fuse and ext2fuse (e.g.
