Re: create HFS partition
Hi,
The reason you cannot see it is due to no Apple drivers being on it, even if
you have a HFS partition. I tried the exact same thing, and kicked myself
after I found this out as this wasn't the setup I wanted.
I think if you do all the partitioning with apples Drive Setup program,
where the drivers will be created along with the Linux partitions, then
it'll probably work. I haven't tried it myself as I've gone to far into my
setup to go back now. Though I may try another spare drive soon.
One last thing, make sure you format the Apple partition as HFS and NOT HFS+
else you cannot access it when in Linux.
I also have a beige G3. Just out of interest do you happen to have a 3dfx
Voodoo card in your G3?
