Disabling journalingu on Mac is simple:
- connect encrypted hard drive (e.g. TC-Disk) with TrueCrypt and then
- open Terminal and type:
diskutil disableJournal /Volumes/TC-Disk
- # truecrypt --filesystem=none /dev/sda (TrueCrypt connects drive without knowledge of filesystem type.)
- # truecrypt -l (Look for the mount path of the drive.)
- You should see something similar to:
/dev/mapper/truecrypt1 /dev/sda - then:
# fsck.hfs -fy /dev/mapper/truecrypt1 (The fsck.hfs command to turn journaling OFF.) - And now you can mount TC-Disk under Linux with read-write permissions:
# mount -t hfsplus -o rw /dev/mapper/truecrypt1 /mnt/my_encrypted_drive
[crarko adds: I haven't tested this one. OK, it's a little obscure but it might help someone.]
