[QUOTE="dcow, post: 1001704, member: 139944"] Take chas_m's advice.. if you can get that partition to mount on a remote system <--if that doens't make sense read below Next, do you have any Linux cds lying around? If so then boot up into linux and try to mount the MacHD. To do that click on places at the top (if you are using Ubuntu which I'm assuming you will be) and click the icon for your MacHD. Let us know if you can do that or if the drive even shows up. You might have a bad partition table.. which fixing is a little beyond our scope here.. Unless you consider yourself up to the task. To do so you have to manually rewrite the table to correct errors and resync it with the actual file system on your drive. Anyway, let us know what you find so we can move forward. [/QUOTE]
