[QUOTE="mac57, post: 308041, member: 17052"] I would actually do the Windows test next. If Windows can see it, perhaps you should try reformatting in Windows, as FAT32. See if the Mac sees it then. My worry is that the Mac doesn't natively support ext2 (although you can get support from here: [url]http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/[/url] ). I wonder if this is throwing it off? So, I suggested reformatting to a single format to start with, so that we know for sure that the Mac SHOULD be able to see it. Once you have this done, you could install the above ext2 support for Mac and use ext2 as the format between your Linux box and your Mac box. [/QUOTE]
