| I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what you mean by "get" the newly mounted disk. Get it where? What are you trying to do with it? If you can be more specific about the issue, we'll be more likely to be able to give you a good answer. |

I'm sorry to confuse you. What I mean is I want my script to automatically find the newly mounted volume from my Mac OS X.
After mounting a .dmg (disk image) file, I want my script to automatically find the mounted volume or disk.
Actually, I have already a script that answers this topic but I want to ask for the better.
Thanks. |

This is what I did:
| Code: |
put "/Volumes/" into global volumes
put the folders of global volumes into global volumesFolder
repeat with each item of global volumesFolder
if it is equal to "BootCD" then
next repeat
else if it is equal to "Drop Box" then
next repeat
else if it is equal to "Elan" then
next repeat
else if it is equal to "SITES" then
next repeat
else if it is equal to "Storage" then
next repeat
else if it is equal to "Test" then
next repeat
else
put "/Volumes/" & it into global mounted_disk
exit handler
end if
end repeat |
Note: BootCD, Elan, Drop Box, SITES, Storage and Test are the volumes of my machine. |

Elan:
This code would be a little more efficient: | Code: | global volumes
global volumesFolder
put "/Volumes/" into volumes
put the folders of volumes into volumesFolder
repeat with each item of volumesFolder
if it is not in ("BootCD", "Elan", "Drop Box", "SITES", "Storage", "Test")
put volumes & it into global mounted_disk
exit handler
end if
end repeat |
