Well, hfs and hfs+ are two separate modules, are you sure both of them
are compiled or loadable/loaded for your kernel ? 

Also, what kind of hfs+ filesystem you have ? Maybe it is lacking
compatibility or something, is it journaled maybe ? Or perhaps there is
an endianess problem in the hfs+ driver ? 

Did this work with a 2.4 kernel ? Have you tested the userland hfstools ?
