Hi Guys...

Ok so I have fedora version 10 on my system. I do alot of media arts work and with that comes mac hard drives (hfs+) from clients. So I can mount them and read from them just fine. Only some Mac Hard drives I can write to even if I can read the files. If I even can write to them it has to be in Super User.

So my questions are...


1.) How can I write to all mac os drives?

2.) How do I write to the drives via: GUI not terminal. (I can do terminal it just takes me a bit when working with a bunch of files. )

3.) How can I write with out being Super User?

assuming the first mac hfs+ partition is /dev/sda1 try

modprobe hfsplus
mkdir /mnt/mac1
mount -t hfsplus /dev/sda1 /mnt/mac1

I have no idea whether you need to backup a journal or if write support is safely enabled
