I just tried to run Fusion (a copy of what works on my A4000) in WinUAE 2.8.1 and it fails as well, maybe it just doesn't work under UAE.
Also consider CrossMAC if you just need to retrieve a file from the partition - it's CrossDOS for Mac/HFS.
That's a good suggestion - I used to do the same thing for reading Mac partitions. As I recall, you'd use something in the Fusion prefs to generate a mountfile, which you'd mount and have the entire Mac volume available to the Amiga. But that relies on making Fusion run of course. And you need to have L:CrossMACFileSystem which I think was separate.
The mountfile I used was:
8.System:> type Seagate:Amiga/System/Storage/Dosdrivers/MacHD
/* DOSDriver for FUSION device: *MSHardFile0 */
Device = devs:mshf.device
Unit = 0
Flags = 0
Surfaces = 4
BlocksPerTrack = 32
LowCyl = 0
HighCyl = 9599
Reserved = 0
Blocksize = 512
Stacksize = 4096
Priority = 5
GlobVec = -1
Buffers = 30
BufMemType = 1
DosType = 0x4D415300
FileSystem = l:CrossMACFileSystem
Ignore the fact I named it "MSHardFile0", I was also doing something with MSDOS partitions at the time and there was some weird reason I did this. If you manually worked out the relevant details of the partition (does one of Thomas Richter's tools do this?) and applied to the above mountlist, and you had CrossMACFileSystem then it might work for you?
