The page you indicate mentions rebuiding the kernel with HFS/HFS+ support. I found a chapter on rebuilding kernels in The Complete FreeBSD and I suppose the handbook also has something to say about it. I'll sort this out first and will come back to you about the scripts you mentioned. Edward James Seward wrote: > On 10/29/05, edward wrote: > >>The iPod uses an HFS+ file system.
