Hi,
In Ubuntu (and Debian I guess) there is a grub-mount command.
It's added to grub with branch_fuse.patch, and in that file it mentions
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2011-01/msg00056.html
I have a MacPro system with Ubuntu installed and some HFS+
partitions. Everytime I do a kernel update (and update-grub)
it hangs when a grub-mount command is used on one of the HFS+
partitions.
The grub-mount command does not hang on all my HFS+ partitions.
But the fact that it hangs on one of them makes it very annoying.
I've tried to debug this problem, but I am not making any progress.
The program hangs in a while(1) loop at line 657 in
grub-core/fs/hfsplus.c
