For putting your linux partition on the desktop in mac OS fashion I've found no other ways than simply creating a shortcut to "filesystem" and place it on the desktop

Showing other drives on the desktop should be enabled by default. If they aren't showing up on the desktop it's maybe because they aren't mounted

well i already tried to make a shortcut for it on the desktop but its greyed out when i right click on it

the onlything i would say to try is press alt+f2 and type in:


gconf-editor

when the window opens up, browse to apps > nautilus > desktop and make sure that "volumes visible" is checked. :)
