...dora. You could get Fedora live image, dd to a USB stick and it
will boot the Mac.
The much bigger problem is recent OS X versions default to, and convert on
updating prior versions to, Core Storage volumes. This is Apple's
equivalent of LVM. And there is no open source code for this. Upstream
liblkid doesn't even recognize it. It's actually a big problem as it
renders OS X HFS unreadable outside of OS X.
Microsoft's equivalent is Storage Spaces. But as yet it's not used by
default. Likewise no support on Linux still.

Re: [PATCH] xfs_mkfs: wipe old signatures from the device
...sty regression
because:
mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda
mkfs.xfs -f /dev/sda
and the device is unmountable, even though it contains valid xfs
file system.
However
mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda
mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/sda
works well, however I am not sure why that is. Is that some kind of
mount(8) magic ?
So I think that liblkid _and_ btrfs tools has to be fixed not to treat
backup superblocks as primary!
Thanks!

HFSPlus Question
In CentOS 7.2.1511 does the 3.10.0-327.18.2.el7.centos.plus.x86_64 (Plus)
kernel read HFSPlus iMac drives? I don't see any hfsplus modules installed
anywhere, so I suspect not. My sister's 17" iMac died, and I'm trying to
recover the drive. If it spins up, I'd like to copy it with dd.
I see that Elrepo has kmod-hfsplus and hfsplus-tools, will these work with
the Plus kernel?
