You are right but this isn't my case here :(, I have an external HD
which has HFS(+) file system on it and I want to use it with my
FreeBSD
6.1-RC1
Any chances?
Mac OSX can't be installed onto a UFS formatted drive as far as I know
Most OSX programs won't run on it either
you can format partitions or drives other than the system drive with
UFS not only at the installtion

What is the status of reading/writing to Mac's file system (HFS)
or is
it HFS+?
it is HFS+ for Mac OS 8.1 and later
Are they supported in FreeBSD 6.0? How about 6.1-RC? Can we
write to that file system or only read at moment? Is it safe? I'm
trying
to find something in the /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/NOTES file but
nothing
is promising so far

add this to your kernelconfig file:
option GEOM_APPLE # Apple HFS+ support
I was able to compile it on FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE-p6 but haven't had
the time to check if it actually works.
google for iPod and FreeBSD for more info :)
