Subject: [gentoo-user] Can I read a MacOSX FileVault disk from Linux?
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2011 11:25:18 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111110192518.GD17332@crowfix.com> (raw)
I have a 5 year old Mac OS X laptop which died last night -- no lights, nothing, as if the battery
and AC line were disconnected. There's nothing on it which is a disaster to lose, but there are
some things I'd like to get off. Is it possible to plug the drive into a SATA (?) connector on a
Linux system and mount it with some encryption loopback setup to get into my FileVault-protcted home
dir?
I do have access to a completely different Mac, and I could probably swap drives, boot, get the data
I want, shut down, and restore drives, but I have no idea how well that would work.
