Hi Steve, I tried 'sudo mount -w -t hfsplus' on both /dev/sdb3 /mnt/osx and on /dev/sdc12 /mnt/osx2. I then tried a 'cp /mnt/osx/Users/myprofile /mnt/osx2, but no luck. I tried running two instances of 'sudo thunar' and drag dropping the directory from the one file manager window (/mnt/osx) to the other (/mnt/osx2), but still no luck. Anymore ideas? Cheers, Brian
