Re: How do I read a Mac disk on Linux.

I don't know just when the hfsplus driver first appeared: I "just assumed" it's not in the Woody kernel coz it's too new and so I just went for the newest kernel I thought would be easy, without going to backports.



I used it somewhere around 2.4.20, don't remember exactly which one (2.4.23?) so 2.4.19 might be good enough...

Anyway, the time for talking is past and I'll be attaching it to my Powerbook later today, and after that the drive will be reformatted for Linux.



  come on, there's no need for such give-up attitude! :-)



I have a job to get done. I may revisit in the future, but I expect it to be simple with Sarge.


Woody is just too old.

This is woody. I chose the most recent, it came from "proposed updates."

And not but also
