If you wind-up with the contents of such a mounted volume
offering you a SimpleText document:
"Where Have All My Files Gone" or something like that,
you've got the HFS wrapper around an HFS+ volume.
umount /mnt/hfs_wrapper
mkdir /mnt/hfs_plus_partition
mount -t hpfs /dev/hfs_plus_partition /mnt/hfs_plus_partition
and expect it to fail with an error message that the module
hpfs cannot be found, then ask the developers how many $
it would take to motivate them to finish it and get it into
the next distribution.
