Thanks for the reply.
# hpfsck -v /dev/sdc2
*** Checking Volume Header:
hpfsck: hpfsck: error writing to medium (Bad file descriptor)
Nothing further. The Mac system where this drive was used is
similarly baffled and offers no progress.
Lacking of knowledge of HFS, I wonder whether the file system
directory is broken.
If the drive is left in this state, the owner will "recycle"; meaning
it will go to a smelting furnace. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smelting
The next obvious step for me is attempt reformatting with FAT or ext.
Otherwise, wipe, partition and then format.
Thx, ... P.
