To make the HFS volume readable and writeable both ways between Linux and
MacOS, you have to add "umask=000" to the corresponding line in /etc/fstab,
like this:

/dev/hda14      /giga       hfs         defaults,umask=000      1       2

I am not aware of any way to change permissions on a HFS volume, it is
probably not possible (I believe that the HFS filesystem does not have
support for file ownership and permissions, but then I could be wrong
just as well since I am not familiar with the HFS format).
