Hi Perry,
You'll find the standard set of ioctl() calls in
<IOKit/storage/IOMediaBSDClient.h>.

There is pretty standard C ioctl call we need to make to access and get

this
call to come back with anything but an error. Is anyone else using it
or can
attest to it working? Or is there sample code I can look at that shows
how
to properly address devices with the call? We've got the right Darwin
headers etc.
We've done code under Linux that does the same thing and it works. So
between the unices (and in Darwin commands and libs) this call should
be made
a lot.
And yes we are working on using IOKit calls instead. The util we are
coming
out with will have an app under MacOS X. But it also has some disk
commands
for admins to use. I'd like to keep this latter code the same across
platforms if possible is why I ask (unless there is a god reason to
deviate).
Thanks,
