Your problem here is that your drive is partioned as Mac OS Ext format and
you are accessing it as a Mac OS standard drive ( HFS vs HFS+ ).
The clue here is the presence of the file "Where_have_all_my_files_gone?) "
which is a built-in error message for this fault.

Fix - not my area, either a driver for hfs+ or maybe partion as Mac OS
Standard.
Gordon - what would you suggest
