Mounting a HFS+ drive formatted using hfsprogs on a mac
I formatted a 1tb wd black 2.5 drive in a external usb enclosure as a HFS+ type partition using hfsprogs on ubuntu 18.04 and copied data from a NTFS drive to the partition. I set permissions on the files to 777 using chmod -R. When I plug the drive into a macmini late 2009 with high sierra the os does not read the file system. Disk Manager does not see the partition and I can not run an repair on it.
I disconnected the drive and plugged it back into my ubutnu system. I am able to read the file system just fine when I mount it in ubuntu, but If I disconnect it and reconnect it to the macmini it does not read it.
Am I doing something wrong? I need to be able to read and write to the file system on the mac so that is why I formatted the file system as HFS+.
Update: I also tried accessing the HFS+ file system on a MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2014) running macOS Mojave and the same problem. I get a message: "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"
Update2: Looking at fdisk for the device it shows a Microsoft basic data partition:
Device Start End Sectors Size Type
/dev/sdi1 2048 1953523711 1953521664 931.5G Microsoft basic data
But on Gparted it shows that the file system is HFS +:
gparted info view of drive
How do you format a drive so its readable on a mac from ubuntu?
