File sharing ​

OrbStack supports two-way file sharing between Linux and macOS:

• Access Mac files from Linux (via /mnt/mac)
• Access Linux files from Mac (via ~/OrbStack or the OrbStack tab in Finder)

You can also use the file transfer commands if you prefer.

Mac files from Linux ​

To access Mac files from Linux, use the same paths you would on Mac, such as /Users/foo.

To be more explicit, you can prefix paths with /mnt/mac. Both of these paths point to Downloads:

• /Users/foo/Downloads
• /mnt/mac/Users/foo/Downloads

Linux files from Mac ​

All files in Linux machines are available from Mac through the OrbStack tab in Finder:

You can also find them at ~/OrbStack for command line access.
