Hey Forums folks!
I'm relatively new to Linux (well a complete knewb to Kubuntu, but have a couple years of unix and a few months on Mandrake 9
) so I'm hoping someone can give me a bit of assistance on this - what should be a cakewalk for most.
I'm trying to mount an IBook G4 (with out Tiger on it) through my local network on account of a hard disk on the laptop that is slowly dying (I'll be swapping the hard drive out later!). I read something on linuxquestions.org (sp?) that said using the simple mount command you can mount the HFS (sp?) file system on a G4 pre-Tiger (it started with a "P" I just can't remember the name). My issue is this - I'm not familiar enough yet with Kubuntu (or Konsol commands) to even access my network to map a network drive. If someone can provide the steps to doing that, and if it is in fact possible to mount my IBook's HDD on my Linux that be great!
As an asside, can anyone tell me how to get usb devises I hook up to my linux to appear as either a mounted drive or in the media directory or something - I connect stuff and if I don't answer the "what would you like to do with this" question I can't seem to find where the thing mounts to. Second Asside - how can I set my NTFS drive on my Linux to auto-mount on startup... Okay... done with my questions!!
Thanks in advance!
