[gentoo-ppc-user] HFSX on Linux?

[Colin]

Just curious, can you mount an HFSX (Mac OS Extended, case-sensitive, 
journaling) under Gentoo?  I'm setting up my partitions and I'd like to 
know.

Hi Colin,

yes you can do that.
Make sure you have selected 
File Systems --> Miscellaneous Filesystems --> Apple Macintosh
Filesystem Support and Apple Extended HFS file system support into your
kernel.

The entry in my /etc/fstab looks like this:
/dev/hda10 /mnt/osx hfsplus defaults,noauto 0 0

The "noauto" means that the partiotion is  NOT mounted automatically at
boot time.

Best regards,

Friedrich

I'm still booted with the LiveCD.  I can mount normal HFS+ partitions 
(not case-sensitive), though the filesystems are marked as locked.  But 
when I try to mount my HFSX partition, I get these errors:

mount -t hfs:
    VFS:  Can't find a HFS filesystems on dev hda13
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda13, or 
too many mounted file systems

mount -t hfsplus:
    HFS+-fs:  unable to find HFS+ superblock
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda13, or 
too many mounted file systems

Here's my disk:
/dev/hda1 - /dev/hda8               Partition map, all those fun Mac OS 
9 boot partitions

            this is my Gentoo install

       and its swap disk
