Hi 2001225354
The  filesystems  extension looks like it supports reading and writing   hfs+.

If you are thanking me for Tinycore, I did not create it, roberts is the man to thank.

That is correct. I just checked the kernel config file and hfs+ is supported as a module, so the
filesystems extension will work.

..joining the thread rather late I know, but I just tried mounting an hfs+ partition and it looks to be read only.

Did anybody else try?

Hmm - to answer my own question it seems either journalling needs to be switched off or hfsprogs is required.

Borrowing debian hfsprogs for a quick and dirty test seems to work

I see it now... My repo seems to be not updating yet.
Wget it, instal and reboot...
 ;D i have rw now using "sudo mount -t hfsplus -o force,rw /dev/sdXY /media/mntpoint"
Unmount using mount tool and the disc is intact, no need fsck.
The mount point tools is read only.

Many thanks to Juanito
