[Bug 734883] Re: iPod won't mount

@Barkhat: All you should need to do is follow the link in comment #19
and download the two .deb files for your installation (i386 for a 32-bit
install and amd64 for a 64-bit install) plus the *_all.deb file. If you
download them to a new folder with nothing else in it, you can install
the packages by opening a terminal, navigating to the folder where you
save the files, and running 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb'. After it finishes you
need to reboot.

@Jordan: Thanks for your testing. I haven't been able to investigate
your report yet, but I'm trying to get to it as soon as I can. One thing
though is that there will obviously be a large number of changes between
the 2.6.38 kernel I built and the 2.6.39 kernel you're comparing it too,
so it would be helpful if you could compare against the released natty
kernel to get a better idea of whether it was my changes or something
else that resulted in the behavior you saw.

  Natty Alpha 3

  WIth Natty I only tried now to mount my iPod, but it doesn't work. It
  used to work great under Maverick, though.

  Here's what I get from dmesg:

  [  452.340069] hfs: unable to find HFS+ superblock
  [  452.410078] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Bad block number requested
  [  452.410110] hfs: unable to find HFS+ superblock

  And this is the error message from the GUI dialog:

  Unable to mount 8.1 GB Filesystem

  Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb3,
         missing codepage or helper program, or other error
         In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
         dmesg | tail  or so
