Thanks guys! That did the trick. I guess I'll dig into the Carbon files
API for the info I need...

This is a bug; on the other hand, filesystem types are complicated
enough now that a simple string like this is not so useful. The Carbon
files APIs have extensive means for querying filesystem attributes, and
there are also BSD-level APIs.
My second question is that I want my app to update when there's a
change to the file system (disk mount/unmount, etc.). I would think
that the right method to use would be fileSystemChanged, but damned if
I can figure out how. I mean, where do I put it in my app? If it were
a delegate method, I'd know, but maybe I've been doing those too long
lately. Sorry if this is a "duh."
Register with NSWorkspace's notification center for the "did mount" and
"did unmount" notifications.

Register for the two NSWorkspace notifications of disk mounts and
unmount (you do not use the fileSystemChanged method - you are looking
a that method incorrectly).
