newbie question...
I found this on the net but it does not seem to be working in ML 10.8.2
auto mount not working - I set a simple applescript
- first I mount the drive = MyDisk (make sure it's working) - then unmount drive
- then run simple script - but it does not mount
How can I fix this?
-----------
property diskname : "MyDisk"
do shell script "disktool -l | egrep -i \"Mountpoint = '', fsType = 'hfs', volName = '" & diskname & "\" | cut -d\\' -f2 | xargs -n1 disktool -m"
Use diskutil, perhaps?
It has been some time now that we have been warned about the deprecation on disktool; it now seems to be official: the current man page for disktool(8) clearly states "do not use disktool", and the output of 'disktool -l' is the same as the one of 'diskutil list', with an additional line:
diskutil: please use diskutil(8) instead of disktool
BTW, are you really thinking about auto mounting, or just mounting a volume?

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the help... well I most likely just want to mount the drive (auto mount wrong term?)
I found this on the net and it seems to work fine now.......
set theDisk to "My drive" do shell script "diskutil mount `diskutil list | awk '/ " & theDisk & " / {print $NF}'`"
and this will unmount
set theDisk to "My drive" do shell script "diskutil unmount " & quoted form of ("/Volumes/" & theDisk)
