I just discovered with the help of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=1cd5d0dd2b46b95f0aad4a218cb27253& t=684420 that I can mount the hfs side of the tubgirl dvd in linux with hfsplus. I thought that was only for reading mac drives, but I guess I was wrong. This means I don't have to use transmac/virtualbox. That said, I am wondering if I can use the linux terminal to replace the commands in the above link #3. Or am I getting the instructions wrong.
