I suspect I already know what the problem is. This hard drive is not in a Windows format. It is that the drive is formatted with Linux. If I remember correctly, KNOS will not mount ext3. Attachments:

Your guess is correct ... for security purposes, we don't allow mounts of Linux in KNOS since we have Linux emulation in KNOS which could conceivably run Linux viruses that aren't inside our sandboxing as would be the case with a Linux drive. So yeah, "extX" support is deliberately not supported for the same reasons that we don't allow NTFS writes in KNOS. We *can* build a custom version that would support that with the necessary warnings and sandboxing, but thought that unnecessary for the public version of KNOS. Linux people generally believe they're invulnerable and don't need something like KNOS. At least Mac users are beginning to see the light.  |
