You are right but this isn't my case here :(, I have an external HD
which has HFS(+) file system on it and I want to use it with my  
FreeBSD

6.1-RC1

Any chances?


Mac OSX can't be installed onto a UFS formatted drive as far as I know

Yeah, it can.


Most OSX programs won't run on it either
you can format partitions or drives other than the system drive  
with UFS not only at the installtion

it is HFS+ for Mac OS 8.1 and later


Are they supported in FreeBSD 6.0? How about 6.1-RC? Can we
write to that file system or only read at moment? Is it safe?  
I'm trying

nothing

is promising so far



http://people.freebsd.org/~yar/hfs/

add this to your kernelconfig file:
option  GEOM_APPLE  # Apple HFS+ support

I was able to compile it on FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE-p6 but haven't had  
the time to check if it actually works.



google for iPod and FreeBSD for more info :)

Mac OS X can be installed on volumes of different formats. These disk
formats have different features and characteristics. If you also  
plan to

use Mac OS 9 or don't have a preference, you should choose Mac OS
Extended (HFS Plus) format instead of UNIX File System (UFS).

ah ok, my bad :(

most apps don't like it though

FreeBSD 6.0 and Mac File System

2006-04-29 Thread Yousef Raffah
What is the status of reading/writing to Mac's file system (HFS) or is
it HFS+? Are they supported in FreeBSD 6.0? How about 6.1-RC? Can we
write to that file system or only read at moment? Is it safe? I'm trying
to find something in the /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/NOTES file but nothing

I don't know about HFS, but you can format your mac drives with UFS when 
you do a clean install of MacOS, at least then FreeBSD would be able to 
read them.
