Hey Dale,
DADiskMountApprovalCallback() can head off the mount.
DADiskMountWithArguments() can accept "nobrowse" as an argument.
Do you have any sample code that uses these?

PS: fstab(5) can accept "nobrowse" as an alternative. You do not
need to head off the mount in this case.

I've trying to solve a problem which requires 2 components, the
first which has been solved by the code from the
SampleFilterScheme project which makes my partition mountable.
Currently the partition mounts and is viewable in the finder and
on the Desktop, manually I use diskutil to unmount the partition
(diskutil unmount /dev/disk0s3s1) and use hdiutil to mount it
(hdiutil mount /dev/disk0s3s1 -nobrowse) to hide it and this is OK
for me since I know how to do this but expecting users to perform
this task.
I'm told that I need to use the DA framework to achieve this task
however I am unable to find any sample code that shows me how to
mount a partition with flags.
I realize everyone will ask why I need to do this and to make it
short I want it hidden from view to prevent people from any
accidental wrong-doings.
I've read the list archives and what I have concluded is that this
is a complicated matter that is well beyond my capabilities so
finding sample code I can adopt for this use would make my life
significantly easier and allow me to keep what little hair I have
left.
The partition in question wli always be /dev/diskXs3s1 so finding
them is easy, unmounting and remounting with the nobrowse flag is
my problem and I'm probably looking at it wrong, maybe the initial
mount request can be interrupted and the option set.
Sample code that shows how to do either would be greatly appreciated.
