Hi Ryan,

I was tumbling around the web with the same issue as you and I think I found a solution. Two things have to be done:
  1. Enable kernel modules:
    Code:
    # modprobe hfs
# modprobe hfsplus
    (Don’t know if this has to be done in order, but I guess it won’t hurt if you do so).
  2. Repopulate filesystem (credit: http://www.renanmarks.net/en/blog/re...g-linux-system ). Knoppix has parted, which AFAIK comes with a program called partprobe. Execute it now that it will recognize HFS partitions and then there you will find new directories under /media:
    Code:
    # partprobe /dev/sdb
    (assuming that the HFS partition is in /dev/sdb).

Note: If you have a HFS+ partition (journal enabled) it will probably mount it in read-only mode. You can fix this by mounting the partition with the force option:
Code:
# mount -o force,rw /media/sdb2
(again, assuming /dev/sdb2 is the HFS partition).
