Hi Klaus,
Yesterday I tried to mount my iPod as usual, but the hfsplus kernel module complained the following:
HFS+-fs warning: Filesystem was not cleanly unmounted, running fsck.hfsplus is recommended. mounting read-only.
So I installed your hfsplusutils package and ran hpfsck. After that I tried to remount /dev/sda3, and sure enough, the kernel spit out the same message.
After a bit of time debugging what was wrong during the hpfsck run, I found out that the filesystem is opened read-only:
result = fscheck_volume_open(&vol, device, HFSP_MODE_RDONLY);
Hence, the volume_close() call couldn't write anything like HFSPLUS_VOL_UNMNT in the FS' attributes... Once I changed that to open the device read-write, the next mount attempt worked. Is there any reason why hpfsck would attempt to fix a filesystem read-only ?
