Mounting a usb attached drive into UBUNTU 16.04 LTS running on a mac in Parallels in OS X 10.11.06
I have a disk that is formatted with an EX4 Linux file system on a 2 TB Seagate hard drive connected to my Mac with a USB bridge. I need info off of that disk, so on my mac I installed parallels and Ubuntu 16.04. LTS. In Parallels preferences, under Devices, the USB / ATA/ATAPI bridge is connected to Ubuntu Linux. I have another USB external disk formatted NTFS connected where file system can successfully see in the Files Application.
The problem is that I cannot see the usb bridge connected seagate 2 TB disk listed in the File application. Do I need to mount it? How can I make this visible?
Thanks!
