NAME

       hpmount -- change directory on an HFS+ volume

SYNOPSIS

       hpmount [-r]  [-pn]  source-path

Description
       hpmount	introduces a new HFS+ volume.  The source path may specify a block device or a regular file containing an HFS+ volume image.  Fur-
       thermore, hpmount creates the file .hfsplusvolume in the user's home directory, where the source path and the catalogue ID of  the  current
       working directory are stored.

       hpmount accepts the following options:

       -r	 mount the volume read-only.  The default is to allow write-access.

       -pn	 mount partition number n.  The default is to mount the first partition that looks like it contains an HFS+ volume.

NAME

       hmount - introduce a new HFS volume and make it current

SYNOPSIS

       hmount source-path [partition-no]

DESCRIPTION

       hmount is used to introduce a new HFS volume. A UNIX pathname to the volume's source must be specified. The source may be a block device or
       a regular file containing an HFS volume image.

       If the source medium is partitioned, one partition must be selected to be mounted. If there is only one HFS partition  on  the  medium,	it
       will  be  selected by default. Otherwise, the desired partition number must be specified (as the ordinal nth HFS partition) on the command-
       line. Partition number 0 can be specified to refer to the entire medium, ignoring what might otherwise be perceived  as	a  partition  map,
       although in practice this is probably only useful if you want this command to fail when the medium is partitioned.

       The  mounted  volume becomes "current" so subsequent commands will refer to it.	The current working directory for the volume is set to the
       root of the volume.  This information is kept in a file named .hcwd in the user's home directory.

       If the source medium is changed (e.g. floppy or CD-ROM disc exchanged) after hmount has been called,  subsequent  HFS  commands	will  fail
       until the original medium is replaced or a different volume is made current. To use the same source path with the different medium, reissue
       the hmount command.

EXAMPLES

       % hmount /dev/fd0
	      If a Macintosh floppy disk is available as /dev/fd0, this command makes the floppy current for other HFS commands  such  as  hls(1),
	      hcd(1), hcopy(1), etc.

       % hmount /dev/sd2 1
	      If  a  SCSI disk is available as /dev/sd2, this command finds the first HFS partition on the medium and makes it available for other
	      HFS operations.

NOTES

       hmount does not actually mount an HFS partition over a UNIX directory in the traditional mount(8) sense. It is merely a "virtual" mount, as
       a point of convenience for future HFS operations. Each HFS command independently opens, operates on, and closes the named source path given
       to hmount.
