>volume. Is there a way to mount an HFS volume in yellowdog? I know you can

You can edit the '/etc/fstab' file. Here's a real life example from my system:
/dev/hda10 /scratch hfs ro 0 0
The first item is the device, then comes the mount point in the device
tree. Next comes the file system designator. 'ro' in the next column means
read-only. The two zeroes I don't remeber, but I just copied them from
other entries. Descriptions of these entires can be found in the ''fstab'
manpage.
After editing '/etc/fstab' you need to create the mount point with 'mkdir
/scratch' (in the above example). After typing 'mount /scratch' the hfs
partition works as any other Linux device. I am not sure, but next time you
boot it should be mounted automatically, unless you put 'ro, noauto' in the
fourth column of the 'fstab' entry.
Cheers
