read extern drive in ubuntu

Come to think of it if your friend can make a cd image file (an iso
image) of the book and email it to you then you can mount that image
as an loop back device. It would save posting the disk.


$ sudo aptitude install hfs*
$ sudo mount -t hfsplus -o loop,ro /path/to/book.iso /macdisk

OR

$ sudo mount -o loop -t hfs book.iso /macdisk
