Can't say that I ever recognized your described behaviour on real
hardware (G4 and G5). Mounting and unmounting so far always worked as
long as the FS wasn't tempered with.
Can you please also give some more details about used OS release and
package version?
Virtualbox 5.2.22
Buster alpha3 amd64 (just to see if a thing works at all)
hfsprogs 332.25-11+b2
Weird, now it works.
And it seems like I got my answer, grub can't boot from a HFS partition :-P
