Me.1
Congratulations on a Polished Flavor made 4 Old PCs, I’ve had a lot of previous eXperience w/ Puppy Linux which I still Rate, But often or sometimes the Look & Feel puts some people off ( even w/ the myriad of Desktop Choices I’ve tried eg. LXDE, XFCE, eNlightenment, etc ). But Finally @ Long Last I’m Here w/ AntiX & I’m Not disappointed!
My issue is a Trickier that normal eXercize because I’ve installed AntiX 17.2 X64 Base Stable on a MacBook Pro Running Mojave, I’ve Tried installing REFind Boot Manager from MacOS without sucksess. Of course AntiX isn’t booting from Grub, I’ve Reinstalled AntiX Twice, installed Grub 2 the ESP Partition 1st No Go, then installed Grub in2 Root, Still No Go! I have got REFind installed on a USB Flash Dr. Of course the Objective is 2 have REFind installed on the Hard Dr, But being New Green & Fresh w/ AntiX I’m Lost, also it doesn’t help that my Command Line skills aRe Lacking!
Perhaps yoU’Re Wundering whY I’d Choose 2 Use a Linux OS intended 4 Resource Challenged ( ie. Slow CPU & / or Low RAMemory ) Hardware, the Method in My Madness, being 2 Rescue / Divert Other Old PCs from the Landfill.
So Your Support Will be Appreciated!

I’ve no experience with Macs – the normal way to mount a hard disk is
sudo mount /dev/sda1
Substitute what name is given to your drive, you will be asked for the password, enter demo.
You might need to use a different filesystem, so use the -t option.Linux (& BSD) since 1999
Thanx 4 your Reply, Actually I thought that was the Command, I had tried it, but got…
Mount is denied because the NTFS volume ( which is my Shared Data Partition ) is already exclusively opened. The volume may may be already mounted, or another software may use it which could be identified for example by the help of the ‘fuser’ command.
Which of I typed, But I don’t understand, I’m Confused Sorry, What 2 Do Next? Please…

It should have been automounted, the default, so it should be available from your file manager.
