10.3: Mount and use NTFS disks natively
Authored by: lyrrad on May 02, '04 01:22:44PM

just tried out this tip. works good so far. i tried it because I have a FW drive I share data between my AL-PB and my PC, but at the same time I require a partition solely for OSX to store OSX-only data for archiving and backup. (alas insufficient mulas for a new FW case + hdd)

WindowsXP will not (obviously) read the HFS+ partition, and load the FAT32 partition. 10.3.2 will automatically mount the FAT32 partition but not the HFS+ partition automatically. have to manually mount it with the hdid command.

wondering if there's a workaround to mount the HFS partition automatically rather then manually via terminal.
