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 BTW. I've also tried to contact Macro Gerards (the contributor of the HFS+ code), but I didn't get a reply from him. -- Kees
