Can Haiku Read Mac Hard Drives?

KenO · October 18, 2007, 4:38pm

I have tried BeOS 5PE Windows install so know it will read Windows FAT32 hard drives.

If I connect a Mac hard drive will BeOS/Haiku read it?

Thanks

Hello!
BeOS comes with filesystem drivers for FAT16, FAT32, and HFS (old Macintosh filesystem).
Maybe You can mont the new filesystems in BeOS, but i’m not sure.

Hi!
BeOS can read HFS partitions and maybe can write, but I’m not sure.
I’ve tried it with an old PowerMac 6400. Both x86 and PPC BeOS can access HFS partitions, but I think Haiku can’t (yet).

Thanks everyone!

Is there someplace where I can find all the Files that BeOS/Haiku supports?

Thanks again for your help
