Merely restating your assertion that HFS cannot read HFS+ does not really answer my question. The question was: how would I recognize that? What would happen? What exactly do you mean "it cannot read"?
The best way to demonstrate this would be to describe an action I could take involving data interchange between the two that would fail, so I could experience the failure. My own example now seems inadequate to me. If I installed OS9 and Photoshop on my HFS volume then dragged Photoshop to an HFS+ volume, and then I used Photoshop from my HFS volume on files it created that are stored in another HFS+ volume, it is conceivable that all of these remain HFS files because the Photoshop app was originally installed in the HFS volume, even though it now sits (the app folder) in an HFS+ volume. Or? So how about this: I just took a screenshot in an HFS+ volume using Simpletext and OS9 that were installed into that HFS+ volume. I dragged it into my HFS OS9 volume folder. I rebooted to that HFS volume. I then opened my in-HFS-created Simpletext app and Chose File/Open/and the screenshot I had just created in the HFS+ volume. It opened just fine and I saw the HFS+ data in my HFS volume, using my HFS OS and HFS app. Does this not constitute data interchange from HFS+ to HFS? If not, please design an experiment with normal data (not audio or video) that will show me what cannot be done. Thanks, Michael M -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
