Ubuntu – Dual Boot: access Mac OS HD folders from Ubuntu

dual-bootnautilus

I did it!!! I'm right now writting from Ubuntu 11.10 installed in my MacBook Pro using Dual Boot!!!

THe only thing is, how can I now access my Mac folders? From Ubuntu if I try to open Music, Documents or any of those folders related to the Mac user I get the following:

[The folder contents could not be displayed.
You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "Music"]

I can access them if I run Nautilus from root (gksudo nautilus), but I would like to just be able to browse those folders.

Thanks!

Best Answer

just launch nautilus as root :
gksudo nautilus

this will give you access to osx files from ubuntu or from a terminal open up a root shell :

sudo -s; cd /media
