Hi folks!  
Adding the data source of Windows can be extracted and analyzed normally, but trying to add the data source of Mac can only load out the directory, and the data result is not extracted from the extracted content, including adding the Linux data source.  
So does Autopsy only support the analysis of windows data sources?

Yes, non Windows data sources are supported. We would need to see log files to determine why you are not getting results for non Windows data sources.
