Accessing the user space of one OS from within another.
Recently, I setup a dual boot on this PC. I can currently jump from Ubuntu 12.04 and 16.04. What I would like to be able to do is access the home directory of my 16.04 OS from within the 12.04, is that possible? I can mount the partition of the hard drive where 16.04 lives from within 12.04 but it seems like it's only allowing me access to the kernel space.
note: I believe this question fits under the unix.com umbrella but if not let me know.
EDIT: I may have pulled the trigger on asking this question a bit to early. This could be my own fault for how I setup my 16.04 system.
