+ <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 kio-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>
