Mounting iPhone Media drive fails if there is a local mount already named Media in /Volumes.

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Mount a volume at /Volumes/Media. (This can be a disk image, external USB 
drive, whatever.)
2. Attempt to mount the iPhone Media partition.
3. Mounting will fail. The following will be written to the console.

mount_fusefs: fusefs@0 on /Volumes/Media: Operation not permitted

Suggested fix: Check if there is already a mount of the same name in /Volumes. 
If there is, mount 
at /Volumes/Media 1 instead. Or use a default mount name that is more likely to 
be unique, like 
"iPhone Media". Or mount in another location, like /tmp/iPhoneDisk/Media.

I've fixed this bug by mounting to /tmp/iPhoneDisk/iPhoneMedia and 
/tmp/iPhoneDisk/iPhoneRoot.

can you explain how to do that?

You can now specify a custom volume name by editing the iphone disk 
configuration settings.  The default 
volume name is "iPhoneDisk" which should also cause fewer conflicts.

See http://code.google.com/p/iphonedisk/wiki/README for the updated install 
instructions (see the download 
section for the latest disk image).
