Thank you for the suggestion. I changed fstab, unmounted and remounted 
the drive, this is what the mount command shows:

/dev/sdb6 on /macos9 type hfsplus (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

but when I attempt to make any changes to any files or directories, I 
still get:

[root@mac7200 macos9]# touch HenryWebSite
touch: setting times of `HenryWebSite': Read-only file system

I thought maybe the permissions, but I can't modify those either; it 
just comes back with "read-only file system".

Is it possible that hfs+ files are only supported as read-only by YDL?
