The Squeeze OS is running on an embedded Linux system and Linux can
mount a HFS+ journaled disk. The disk needs to unmounted properly from
OS X, so the journal is empty, and then on the Linux side of the
equation, the mount has to be forced, so it can be both read and write
and not read-only.

The trick is to make sure the journal is empty (clean unmount on the
OSX side) and to force the mount. Normally Linux will mount it
read-only with a command similar to this:

mount -t hfsplus -o rw,force /dev/sdx1 ds

It would be far more convenient for Mac users to have this support and
I believe HFS+ is far more lenient with respect to file names and
sizes.
