Permissions on a shared drive in dual boot setup

Hi,

I have a MBP with a ssd that hosts Fedora 20 and OSx Mavericks in a dual
boot setup. In the laptop I also have a 500GB internal drive on which I
currently have my OSX Home directory. I have this drive (HFS+) mounted r/w
in Linux, but, as perhaps expected, there are a lot of issues with
permissions (files and directories in my OSX Home directory that i can't
access except if I copy them as root).

Is there a way that I can with this disk in Fedora, opening files and
writing files to it that I later can access in OSX as a regular user
similar to how I can move a USB drive from one computer to another without
getting issues with permissions? Or is it not advisable to do what I'm
trying to do? I have to admit that I haven't tried changing permissions on
the existing files on the drive but I suspect that would make them
inaccessible in OSX...

Please note that I have no problem mounting the disk as rw, only accessing
the files that are already there.

Thanks for any input,
/Henrik
