I would attempt seeing if you can mount the drive from another workstation that isn't a Chromebook Once you know that you can mount the disk Then you should be able to use the Chromebook Linux Partition Terminal software to access the drive however you typically have to use the Chromebook File Manager sometimes as well as there are some differences as each is it's own container or VM/slice It may be easier to just copy what you need and use a sneaker net FAT usb sometimes Ext4 can work However Chromebook and ChromeOS has depreciated ext filesystem for whatever reason Dev-Mode and Crouton should be ok And it Uses . /media/ & mnt/chromeos/removable Remember to use the Chromebook file manager and right click /hamburger "Share with Linux" This creates another symbolic link alias between the two containers Another option is to just install Linux Debian container onto the Chromebook in options Then install nano qemu-system qemu-utils python3 python3-pip And you should be able to boot any "qemu container "you want A LA VMware Suse or whatever floats you boat. And then you have another Linux machine that should be able to natively mount the ext4 partition Or similar tiny core Linux busybox or similar O/s You probably could port IBM os/2 warp on it if you want to Another option would be something like FUSe, or NfS socket or plan9 9Pfuse if you are into plan9. And serve it over the local network Cheers from J > % ChromeOS will no longer support ext2/3/4 on external drives/SD cards. Only fully supported filesystems are FAT and NTFS.
