FUSE OSX / FUSE-EXT2

Finally got my EXT2 FUSE stuff working; had to install the compatibility layer.

The following steps are worthwhile:

  • Install the ext2 FUSE module: http://sourceforge.net/projects/fuse-ext2/
  • Use Disk Utility to get the device name of the ext3 drive (diskutil list)
  • Create a mount point by making a directory in your /Volumes folder or anywhere on your system.
  • fuse-ext2 /dev/disk2s2 /Volumes/mountpoint
  • To add write support, supply the “-o force” flag as follows: fuse-ext2 -o force /dev/disk2s2 /Volumes/mountpoint

Not the fastest thing in the world, but it does work.

Linux unwilling to play nice with external USB3 drives

Tried playing with my new Lacie external drive… dmesg sees it, and it near-immediately placed it into offline mode.

Turns out it wasn't playing nice because some uas module was confusing things. I blacklisted and rmmod'ed it, and it worked just fine after that.
