glad to hear that. while i knew that some progress had been made, i
didn't want to recommend something which i haven't recently & reliably
used myself, though. maybe i should have mentioned that my experience
with hfsplus on linux is slightly dated by now. i.e. when i needed it
around the turn of the year it seemed a little bit too rough (on sarge
beta), so i turned to ext2 for shared partitions. which worked rather
well w/ aforementioned extension -- until tiger.

@albert: concerning UFS, all i ever heard was recommendations against
using it unless being absolutely forced to because of some legacy
software, so i never considered.

best,

sascha
