[re-post from a message sent to -hackers, for which I had no answer : -ppc is
certainly a better audience ;-)]
Abstract : I have seen that the hfs and hfsutils only deal with "standard HFS"
partitions.
Is there a way to read HFS+ partitions from a Uix-like OS (not OS-X, of
course) ?

---------------------
Hello,
I've installed 5.0-DP2 on my Vaio which has a firewire port.
I already had loaded the firewire driver in 4.7-Stable, to see what happened
(nothing remarkable : the chipset is indeed probed and recognized,
nevertheless, thanks for the driver !).
To go a bit further, I've borrowed a 80Gb disk from a colleague, who runs OS-X
on his mac. I'm trying to read from this disk under 5.0-DP2
after loading the sbp.ko module, the disk is detected as :
sbp0: <SBP2/SCSI over firewire> on firewire0

I've tried both /usr/ports/emulators/hfs and hfsutils, but I can't read the
HFS partition. I only have the root directory :
portable-cur# hfs dir -d /dev/da0

Is it a special form of HFS (HFS+ ?) ? is there some utility to mount this
kinds of partitions ?
Thanks in advance
