I have an external 60GB Firewire drive currently (stupidly) formatted in HFS+ (Mac OS X "Extended"). I'd like to get all the files off of the drive and onto my FreeBSD machine (which has firewire card installed, although I've yet to try and tackle mounting it).
http://people.freebsd.org/~yar/hfs/ was the place to turn, but there are several very ominous warnings about using it for important data. I was curious as to whether this was just one of those "cover your behind" disclaimers or a "really, don't use this for anything important" disclaimers.
If you are simply recovering your mp3's^H^H^H^H^Hdata, then just mount it read only, copy data, unmount.. After the copy, who cares if it trashes it?
