Gnarlie,

Looks like you can't access the hidden folder using the "Finder friendly"
form, which sort of makes sense if you think about it. But if you use the
usual Mac-path form you are OK.

Both
tell application "Finder"
update "Luggage:Volumes"
end tell

...and
tell application "Finder"
open "Luggage:Volumes"
end tell

...work fine on my machine, whose startup disk is (of course) "Luggage".

More generally:

tell application "Finder"
update (name of startup disk) & ":Volumes"
end tell

HTH,

Nigel
