Hi all,
Since people have asked questions about wrapped HFS+ volumes, I was reminded of a question I'd been meaning to ask. In general, by default, HFS+ volumes are created with the HFS wrapper for compatibility and are coded in the Partition Map with a type of 'Apple_HFS'. However, the potential exists for HFS+ volumes to exist on their own without the wrapper (especially where OS X is concerned -- or so I am led to believe).
My question is simply, would such an unwrapped volume be coded in the Partition Map with the same type (Apple_HFS) or is there a type that exists specifically for this case?
