Questo perchè hai formattato in hfs+ senza attivare il journaling.

The Linux kernel does not support writing to HFS+ journals, writing to a 
hfsplus partition is recommended only after disabling journaling; however, 
the kernel, as of version 2.6.16, supports case-sensitivity (also known as 
HFSX) commit. iPod nanos for example may come with journalized hfsplus from 
the factory, to mount read/write under Linux simply disable journaling under 
OSX.

IMHO tenere l'ipod con hfs+ secondo me è inutile e "dannoso": il giorno in cui 
vuoi usarlo come penna usb sul pc windows è inutilizzabile...
