file transfer between mac drives

[yellowdog-newbie@lists.terrasoftsolutions.com]

mount -t hfs /dev/hdxN  where x  and N is the partion of your mac os; in my case it's hda9 (mount -t hfs /dev/hda9).

you can edit mnt and  fstab for  a mount point, mine is mac. so I can do mount  /mac.

Then it acts like any drive to copy to it :

cp some_file.txt  /dev/hdxN or in my case  cp my_file.txt /mac

> Question:
I have two drives.  One dedicated to Linux (YDL 2.3), the other MacOS 8.6.
The Linux side would find this other drive at /dev/hdxN, where x 
ranges from a-z and N ranges from 1-9. Currently I believe the 
sequence to mount the hfs drive and send a file to it from Linux 
would be two steps:

1. mount -t hfs /dev/hdxN /mnt/macos
2. cp ./happy.txt /mnt/macos

Am I right?  Or is there a better way to do this?
Thanks for your help.

  "In Germany, the Nazis first came for the communists, and I didn't 
speak up because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the Jews, 
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the 
trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade 
unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up 
because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time 
there was no one left to speak for me." -- The statement was written 
by the Rev. Martin Niemoeller, a German Lutheran pastor who was 
arrested by the Gestapo in 1938. He was sent to the concentration 
camp at Dachau, where he remained until he was freed by the Allied 
forces in 1945.
