Yes it does! there is a kernel-module for hfs (and even for hfs+). Try

# ls -lR /lib/modules/2.6.8*-powerpc/kernel/fs/hfs*

It might not be loaded automatically in the chroot, though. Try

# modprobe hfs

and then

# mount /dev/hda10 /mnt

Those commands worked perfectly. Indeed, you were correct, I was very close. Debian is a very nice distro! As a small token of my thanks, I would like to help out with the manual. I think I should document my experience before it fades from my mind. How would you suggest I do that? Should I start with your bug report?

Thanks very much, Hans, Clive and Ben. You were all a great help.
