so i add user_xattr and acl to my fstab options but then it fails to mount. checking the error in dmesg just gives me ¨hfs: unable to parse mount options¨. does anyone know what´s going on and what i should do to make this work?
Well, having used the in-kernel HFS+ filesystem driver before, and found it lacking in a number of areas (like massive corruption under heavy load or when unlinking lots of files) I bought the commercially supported Paragon NTFS&HFS drivers. http://www.paragon-software.com/business/ntfs-linux-professional/
I have not tried extended attribute and acl support, but the Paragon drivers support full read and write on journaled HFS+ filesystems. It's $40 US, but worth every penny in my book for filesystem compatibility.
