Finding usb drive paths in Mac OS 10.4

The system_profiler command in Mac OS 10.5 shows the mounted volume paths for the associated USB drives. In 10.4, however, they are not shown. Any ideas on how I can get the mount location for USB drives in 10.4?

Solution

  • Disk Utility can show you:

    diskutil list # to get the device/sector numbers
diskutil info /dev/diskXsY

    These will likely end up mounting in /Volumes/.
