diskutil info /mount/point | grep UUID
'diskutil info ...' works. Well hidden! #$%&@! Thanks.
Well, it's still well hidden . . .
After guessing that 'diskutil info ...' is a "do script"
command, the following does NOT return the UUID, nor does any
convolution thereof:
return do shell script "diskutil info /mount/point | grep UUID"
I mucked around for a while and found that I can get the disk
identifier, not the UUID, with:
return do shell script "diskutil list"
--> disk0s2
and then tried various versions of:
return do shell script "diskutil info disk0s2"
The best I can get is 20 lines of info. which do include the
UUID. DO I need to use BBEdit to do a search of the resulting
text or is there some (still well hidden) way to actually get
just the UUID?
Thank you!
(I appreciate that we are all very busy, but for that same
reason there are some of us who would be grateful if direct
questions could be given direct answers, not just clues, and if
you do figure out the answer, please do not continue to keep it
a secret! Some of us are trying to learn what we can from this
deeply appreciated list. If I need some kind of secret
handshake, do please let me know! ;-) )
