[PROBLEM] XBian + HFS = read only

[IriDium]

I also have no experience with HFS+ but...

I assume you have installed HFS support?

If not

Terminal

sudo apt-get install hfsplus hfsutils hfsprogs

I would check the disks with

Terminal

sudo fsck.hfsplus /dev/<drive ID>

I also believe that you need to turn off journalling for R/W.

Terminal

sudo diskutil disableJournal <volume name>

Then you should be able to mount it:

Terminal

sudo mount /dev/<drive ID> /<mount point> -t hpsplus defaults,rw 0 0

I don't have HFS+ so cannot test any of these commands!!
