Due to a severe bug in Mac OS ( 4141496), there is no way in hell Finder can
do what you want.

You can only do it through the shell. Finder ignores the "-1" suffix to an
identically named disk, while shell recognizes it as a POSIX path.

But that's OK, since shell copying is much better than Finder copying
anyway.
