How to access OS/2 HPFS partitions ?

[SYNass IT Ubuntu / Linux]

Hello Ubuntu cracks or users with OS/2 experience

How do you get at least read access of OS/2's HPFS file systems ?

With all my fstab, partition experiments I want to get confident
knowledge to 
manage my migration from OS/2 Warp to Ubuntu 8.04 LTS somewhat in May or
June !

Your advice, help, hints and suggestions are appreciated and hot awaited
here. ;-)

Cheers, svobi
