Anyone ever tried to recover data from a OSX drive using tools like the
LNX-BBC, or just Linux in general?

Our Mac admin's system took a dive and OSX isn't recognizing his hard
drive. As a last ditch effort, we tried to stick the drive in a PC and
boot it up with the lnx-bbc. After running through mount commands,

mount -t hft /dev/hda9 /somewhere

worked, but all ls shows is .finderinfo, .resource, and .rootinfo.

Anyone have any tips? Given the amount of I/O errors I get while the
LNX-BBC boots and the endless stream I/O errors gpart generates, I'm
not hopeing for much, though having /dev/hda9 mount is promising.
