- <para>The mac ioslave lets you read an HFS+ partition from
- &konqueror; or any other &kde; file dialog. It uses
- <ulink
- url="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;q=hfsplus+utils">
- hfsplus tools</ulink>,
- so you will need these installed for it to work.</para>
-
- <para>Enter <command>mac:/</command>
- into &konqueror; and you should see the contents of your &MacOS;
- partition. If you have not used tdeio-mac before, you will
- probably get an error message saying you have not specified the
- right partition. Enter something like
- <command>mac:/?dev=/dev/hda2</command>
- to specify the partition (if you don't know which partition &MacOS;
- is on, you can probably guess by changing hda2 to hda3 and so on
- or use the print command from
- <command>mac-fdisk</command>). This partition will be used the next
- time, so you do not have to specify it each time.</para>
-
- <para><command>Hfsplus tools</command> let you see the file and copy
- data from the HFS+ partition, but not to copy data to it or change
- the filenames.</para>
-
- <para>HFS+ actually keeps two files for every one you see (called
- forks), a resource fork and a data fork. The default copy mode
- when you are copying files across to your native drive is raw data,
- which means it only copies the data fork. Text files are copied
- in text mode (same as raw format but changes the line endings to
- be &UNIX; friendly and gets rid of some extra characters - strongly
- advised for text files), unless you specify otherwise. You can
- also copy the files across in Mac Binary II format or specify
- text or raw format with another query:
- <command>mac:/myfile?mode=b</command> or
- <command>mac:/myfile?mode=t</command>. See <command>man
- hpcopy</command> for more.</para>
-
- <para>Note that you need permissions to read your HFS+ partition.
- How you get this depends on your distribution, do a
- <command>ls -l /dev/hdaX</command> on it to see. Under Debian you
- have to be in the 'disk' group (just add your username to the end of
- the entry in /etc/group).</para>
-
- <para>For some reason some directories in &MacOS; end in a funny
- tall 'f' character. This seems to confuse hfstools.</para>
