Did HFS+ support drop out of the kernel?

Undesirable workaround, if you have access to a Windows machine:

1. Install iTunes on the Windows machine
2. Plug-in the iPod. iTunes will display a message if you plug-in an HFS+ iPod (set-up using a Mac) telling you that, in order to use this iPod on Windows, you must restore it to factory settings.
3. Click on Restore, and the iPod will be formatted automatically as FAT32.
4. Eject the iPod, then plug into Ubuntu machine and you're up and running!
