You may want to consider the history of hfs support more. IIRC, this 
method is totally deprecated, and can/will result in data loss. The 
"new" way was to use hfsutils. Perhaps this has changed since my days 
of browsing the venerable linuxppc-user list, but I never heard of 
it. What say the other lurkers from the past?
