I was able to create an hfsplus formatted image, mount it with loopback and write a file to it using 2.6.37.2

It is indeed fixed in 2.6.37.2-libre (and 2.6.37.3-libre), so this can now be closed. I apparently lack permissions to close it myself.

Alexandre Oliva said this will be fixed in the next linux-libre build (2.6.37.2). He'll also compare Debian's Linux config for mipsel to his own to see if anything else is missing.

Here are the kernel details from uname:

$ uname -a

The packages hfsplus and hfs-utils fail to work because HFS is not supported in the kernel.

What happens after installing the two packages is the following error:

$ sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt
mount: unknown filesystem type 'hfsplus'

$ sudo mount -t hfsplus /dev/sdc1 /mnt
mount: unknown filesystem type 'hfsplus'

What should happen is that with the packages installed, the filesystem should mount.

$ apt-cache policy hfsplus hfsutils

hfsplus:
