hdiutil question
Does anybody know of any reason why
hdiutil mount Something.dmg wouldn't work unless somebody was logged in on the console? I'm trying to log in over SSH and perform a bit of system fiddling during my lunch hour, but when I run the above command it simply gives mounts an empty /Volumes/Something directory, with no error message. On the other hand, if I wait until somebody sits down at the phystical machine and logs in then it is quite happy to mount the image - but the /Volumes/Something directory is owned by the person at the console, not me! Here's the output of df (it doesn't change after the mount command) if that would help Code:
Filesystem 512-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/disk0s9 19637488 9602304 10035184 48% / devfs 70 70 0 100% /dev fdesc 2 2 0 100% /dev <volfs> 1024 1024 0 100% /.vol automount -fstab [338] 0 0 0 100% /Network/Servers automount -static [338] 0 0 0 100% /automount |

I got a reply from the Apple Darwin-users mailing list which comes down to
" 'disktool -c <uid>' before you try the mount" see http://lists.apple.com/mhonarc/darwi.../msg06005.html http://lists.apple.com/archives/darw...win141cdin.txt for more details. (For this list you will need a username and password, which are both "archives".) Hope this helps somebody else! Robbie |
