Exchanging Data with my Mac OS X system

[Amhairghin Gluingeal]

Try out this beta hfs+ driver at:

http://www.ardistech.com/hfsplus/

I have not tryed it myself.  But I plan on checking it
out next week (just got YDL on my first ever Mac still
playing with OS X etc).  At any rate the stuff by Brad
Boyer on which this was based supposedly worked ok.  I
also read on a SUSE or Debian mailing list that he was
integrating Ardis' work into his own at sourceforge. 
I can't confirm this cuz I haven't been able to get to
sf for like 3 days...anyway hope this helps!
