How do I mount Ext4 using OS X Fuse
Download and install FUSE-Ext2 as described here and then run something like
mkdir /Volumes/Linux
sudo mount -t fuse-ext2 /dev/disk2s6 /Volumes/Linux
You can figure out the device from looking at the output of diskutil list
.
If you only want read support then ext4fuse can do this job. If you already have homebrew then you can install it with:
brew install Caskroom/cask/osxfuse
brew install ext4fuse
after installation, simply run:
mkdir /Volumes/Linux
ext4fuse /dev/diskXsY /Volumes/Linux
where diskXsY can be found by entering the command diskutil list
.
There is currently no write support in ext4fuse.
⚠️ NOTE: by default you'll only be able to mount and see your files with
sudo
. To mount as regular user add your user to theoperator
group withsudo dscl . append /Groups/operator GroupMembership <your-user>
. Once you've done this you will be able to mount as a regular user and see the files from Finder.
