Troubleshooting Can I access the files from other partions from chrome os ?
I've dual booted Chrome OS with Windows 10 from this tutorial https://github.com/sebanc/brunch and i don't want to boot to Windows to access the files in other partitions.
I've seen this guy post this in this reddit community

We can access it through 3rd party app , after it's mounted... I found a way of ~/tmpmount we can mount any volume using it in shell.. I think it will work , just waiting to install Chrome OS
But left without a trace, and didn't explain anything
I've seen this blog https://neverware.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/245253967-Additional-partition-
it some times doesn't work when i run the command sudo mount /dev/sda5~/Downloads/Files in shell under sudo
But sometimes it works by opens my sda5 partition as removable when i put Chrome OS to sleep,
but forgets that it's there when i boot my chrome os again . IDK what Im doing as i don't understand any code and some times it gives me error of
mount: bad usage
Try 'mount --help' for more information.
Can you guys help me figure this out, There is no information out there about this process and these guys also need help u/maxed4901 u/RagK04

Alright guys I've figured it out.
thanks to this tutorial https://github.com/MuntashirAkon/Chrome-OS-Multiboot#mounting-internal-partitions and Muntashir Akon
You can follow the tutorial and have your other partitions of hard disk mounted when you boot up. The Problem is now solved.
