Bill,

I have a question which relates to your problem. I am actually trying 
to access my Mac partition from within Linux. I have edited fstab by 
adding a line similar to yours (except for the 'N' in 'hdaN' entry. 
However, when I create a hard disk on the desktop and double-click on 
it, I get an error saying that the mount point /share does not exist. 
What should I do in order to be able to 'see' the other Mac partition?

Cheers,

Paolo
