Indeed, this was much easier than I thought. As I said in my other email (which I actually wrote before your email above; there seems to be a considerable delay with the mailing list distributing the emails), I managed to figure out exactly the same thing you said above. And yes, it works the the same way with both HFS+ and ext4. I think that what got me confused was the fact that I've worked a lot recently with external hard drives using NTFS. As far as I remeber, they got mounted in the same way as the fat32 (i.e., no permissions). Maybe Linux is ignoring the NTFS permissions... Thanks a lot for your help.
