How do I read a Mac disk on Linux.



I have an external (USB)  disk that has Linux files iin a Mac HFS+ disk.

It's connected to my IA32 peecee:

Parted sees it thus:
Echidna:~# parted /dev/sda
GNU Parted 1.4.24

Using /dev/sda
Information: The operating system thinks the geometry on /dev/sda is
30401/255/63.  Therefore, cylinder 1024 ends at 8032.499M.
(parted) print
Disk geometry for /dev/sda: 0.000-238475.179 megabytes
Disk label type: mac
Minor    Start       End     Filesystem  Name                  Flags
1          0.000      0.031              Apple
3        128.031 238475.171              Apple_HFS_Untitled_2
(parted)

I've installed hfsplus and hfsutils but I don't see how to access it.

The peecee is running Woody.

Is there a way to access the data on the disk w/o attaching it to my powerbook?
(using the powerbook entails a visit to the site).
