That's the first thing I tried and it didn't work. But now I know why,
because Finder can't access an invisible folder. So if I say:
tell application "Finder" to open folder "Applications" of the startup disk
App folder opens OK, but:
tell application "Finder" to open folder "Volumes" of the startup disk
You could do something like this:
tell application "Finder" to update ("/Volumes/Font HD" as POSIX file)
or, I would think, even delete the alias file, if necessary.
Or use do shell script to create and then delete a dummy file there...
do shell script "touch /Volumes/deleteme; rm /Volumes/deleteme"
