Mmmm...

I will answer myself a little bit... now, it is almost a certainty that
HFS+ is like EXT3. Perhaps, it is like any other journal system (heh, I
donŽt really know what  journal system is :),

A journaling file system is a fault-resilient file system in which data integrity is ensured because updates to directories and bitmaps are constantly written to a serial log on disk before the original disk log is updated. In the event of a system failure, a full journaling filesystem ensures that the data on the disk has been restored to its pre-crash configuration. It also recovers unsaved data and stores it in the location where it would have gone if the computer had not crashed, making it an important feature for mission-critical applications.

jHFS+ being that, I wonder:

If I write from Linux to jHFS+ , what will it happen:

	a) I break the partition and Mac OS X freaks out, crashes, and I
	   have to reinstall Panther again.

Maybe...

	
	b) Since (apparently) the hournal can be activated and
	   deactivated from the GUI, nothing happens: whatever I added
	   under Linux can only be seen if I deactivate the journal,
	   since OS X has not updated it.
	
I don´t know anything about this

	c) The journal is automagically updated in the next boot and
	   therefore, I donŽt have to deactivate it to work with the new
	   files from linux :)
	
This too


Anyone wanna comment? Anyone wanna bet??? :-D

Yes, like i said before, try to not use HFS-Plus write support :-)
