 Posted: Fri May 11, 2018 7:38 pm Post subject: [NOT YET SOLVED]: Acessing the Mac OSX from Gentoo |
 |
|
Hi,
I need to mount Mac partition on my Gentoo laptop to perform some operations.
Googling found this, but I don't know if its up to date.
Is there any relatively recent guide to how to mount OSX partition in Gentoo?
Kernel options, additional packages, troubleshooting, etc? Or the one I referenced is good?
Thank you.

I've tried this once. The filesystem module loaded, I still could not access the files. It wasn't important for me and I didn't try hard, but something made me think the filesystem was encrypted. Maybe macOS encrypts without even asking the user. Just my 2¢.

But what file system hfs or apfs?
For hfs there is support in kernel
| Code: | # grep HFS /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_HFS_FS=m
CONFIG_HFSPLUS_FS=m
CONFIG_HFSPLUS_FS_POSIX_ACL=y |
For apfs not idea never tried but I find a project for fuse

I also tried this:
| Code: |
igor@IgorReinCloud ~/dbhandler $ ssh igorkorot@192.168.1.3:/dbhandler/dbhandler < git pull
bash: git: No such file or directory
igor@IgorReinCloud ~/dbhandler $ git pull
remote: Counting objects: 4, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (1/1), done.
remote: Total 4 (delta 3), reused 4 (delta 3), pack-reused 0
Unpacking objects: 100% (4/4), done.
From https://github.com/oneeyeman1/dbhandler
667ca95..4a93607 master -> origin/master
Updating 667ca95..4a93607
Fast-forward
libdbwindow/databasecanvas.cpp | 1 +
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
|
which should execute the git command from the Gentoo machine remotely on the Mac, but that attempt failed.
Maybe there is a better way?
Thank you. |

ONEEYEMAN ... you're redirecting stdin from a (non-existant) file ("git") on localhost, so the command to be exectuted on 192.168.1.3 is taken as input. You're also providing path for some unknown reason, in short your syntax is wrong ...
| Code: | | % ssh igorkorot@192.168.1.3 "cd /dbhandler/dbhandler ; git pull" |
That said, this is altogether different from "mount[ing] mac partition" as "partition" is not "filesystem", the former is a section of disk, and the later is the path on which the disk is mounted (in comon parlance the "mount point"). So, if you access the machine remotely then any "mounting" (and so the ability to read/write to that filesystem) is provided by macOS.
So, what is it you need to do, mount the (HFS, HFS+, APFS) filesystem from linux, or access that filesystem from a remote host?

Other thing I think you can not write on hfs+ if the journaling is active

fedeliallalinea ... yes, but you can disable the journal via "Disk Utility" (gui) or "diskutil" (cli) ... still, this wouldn't matter at all if ONEEYEMAN is accessing the filesystem remotely, which at the moment isn't clear.

The command above will connect to the machine, switch to the directory and will execute "git pull" from the remote machine.
The trouble is I am running OSX 10.8 which have an outdated version of Git/OpenSSL. And so when I try to run git from Mac it fails with the authentication issue, since GitHub switched from 1.0 to 1.2 certs.
So, since I can successfully run "git" on Gentoo, I thought to do this:
1. Connect (or mount to) OSX machine (192.168.1.3).
2. Switch directory on the remote to ~/dbhandler/dbhandler.
3. Execute "git pull" from the Gentoo machine to update remote repository that is located on Mac.
This is my end goal - perform step #3.
Thank you. |

ONEEYEMAN ... as macOS provides ssh it should be as simple as enabling CONFIG_FUSE_FS and using net-fs/sshfs to "sshfs mount" the remote filesystem to the gentoo machines filesystem ... and then do whatever operations are required ('git pull', etc).
| Code: | % mkdir dbhandler-local
% sshfs igorkorot@192.168.1.3:/dbhandler/dbhandler dbhandler-local
% cd dbhandler-local
% git pull
% fusermount -u dbhandler-local |

Be careful with HFS. If you move files out of HFS to a linux partition you'll lose the resource forks of the files. This includes HFS+ too and maybe even APFS.
I did backups from my old Macintosh to my linux machine back in the days... It didn't turn out well when I needed to accees the files later...

Almost there:
| Code: |
IgorReinCloud mac # git pull
remote: Counting objects: 4, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (1/1), done.
remote: Total 4 (delta 3), reused 4 (delta 3), pack-reused 0
Unpacking objects: 100% (4/4), done.
From https://github.com/oneeyeman1/dbhandler
45bef9b..082bbf4 master -> origin/master
*** Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'root@IgorReinCloud.(none)')
|
I didn't have to do that when I was able to run git from my Mac directly.
And when I am updating my repo on Gentoo I am providing the id/password pair.
Why it didn't ask me for credentials? And what should I do to fix that error?
P.S.: I tried to run those command on my Mac machine locally, but it didn't help.
Thank you. |

Hu ... there are package managers for macOS (like homebrew) that would allow you to do this, but I'd have to question the reason for using macOS at all when there is a linux machine on hand :)

Well, I have OSX 10.8 and it looks like Apple won't supply latest version of OpenSSL for this version.
I can do it manually, but it is more pain to operate with 2 versions of the same software.

|
Here is the output:
| Code: |
IgorReinCloud mac # hostname -fqdn
hostname: invalid option -- 'q'
Usage: hostname [-v] {hostname|-F file} set hostname (from file)
domainname [-v] {nisdomain|-F file} set NIS domainname (from file)
hostname [-v] [-d|-f|-s|-a|-i|-y|-n] display formatted name
hostname [-v] display hostname
hostname -V|--version|-h|--help print info and exit
dnsdomainname=hostname -d, {yp,nis,}domainname=hostname -y
-s, --short short host name
-a, --alias alias names
-i, --ip-address addresses for the hostname
-f, --fqdn, --long long host name (FQDN)
-d, --domain DNS domain name
-y, --yp, --nis NIS/YP domainname
-F, --file read hostname or NIS domainname from given file
This command can read or set the hostname or the NIS domainname. You can
also read the DNS domain or the FQDN (fully qualified domain name).
Unless you are using bind or NIS for host lookups you can change the
FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) and the DNS domain name (which is
part of the FQDN) in the /etc/hosts file.
|
It looks like those options are exclusive.
| Code: |
IgorReinCloud mac # grep "127" /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 IgorReinCloud IgorReinCloud localhost
|
Thank you. |

EDIT ... wait a minute, why does the above prompt say "IgorReinCloud mac"? This should be the machine from which the sshfs is run, not the "mac".

Because the mountpoint is "/mnt/mac".
Or you are asking wjy it is displaying "IgorReinCloud"? I thought it is how sshfs works...

No, I was asking why I saw 'IgorReinCloud mac', I was thinking it may have been the macOS machine as macOS isn't strict about spaces, and I couldn't see why 'mac' would be there ... anyhow, did you adjust /etc/hosts to what I provided above? ... the following suggest you haven't:

That should be a FQDN ("fully qualified domain name") and it isn't.

OK, so I modified the /etc/hosts file by changing "IgorReinCloud" to "IgorReinCloud.local" and everything was good, until I needed a reboot.
After the reboot I lost an internet connection - ping was not working anymore.
Removing ".local" restored it, but unfortunately this is not the solution I'm looking for.
What am I missing? Why the network access was lost after that change?
Thank you. |

ONEEYEMAN ... please provide output of the failed ping, etc, saying the network isn't working tells us nothing. Also, the output of the following (with the supposedly "not working" configuration).
| Code: | # egrep '^127' /etc/hosts
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
# ip route

Hi,
I tried to reproduce it again and failed.
Right now I booted inside the modified /etc/hosts and I do have a network access/Internet with the IP address.
I will try to monitor this and hopefully will hit it at some point.
Thank you and sorry for the noise.
Thank you. |
