Can you give me some more info, like a stack crawl? I would prefer to continue this conversation via eMail, though :-)

I'm using Zeta, and i want test the Haiku daily image from schmidp's archívum. I extracted the .bz2 file, and renamed :
from "haiku.image" to "haiku".
And i used in the Terminal:
"mountimage haiku"
Then the mountimage crashed.
I try with many Haiku image.
Many times ago i used this app, and working, but now crashed.
Can anybody help me?

I've no idea what you're saying, sorry. Tracker will diaplay all mounted volumes that do have the "P" bit set when you do a "df" in a terminal.
That would include all user file systems - it's depending on the file system, so BFS, ISO9660, UDF, etc. have it all set.

May be a figment of my imagination, but I'm sure Tracker does not display virtual filesystems, that includes the root (maybe the floppy and CD-ROM is a different matter ...?) I've read this on the BeBook, but I'm unsure if it pertains to Tracker directly.

You where absolute right, I forgot to quote the volume name, stupid me. Don't know where the -n option came from ( I didn't use that ) but my keybord has mind of his own.
Now I am this far,... can I make some clickble script that does all the work for me?
And remove the virtual disk and all other things that prevent me from using Bochs?? If I have the virtual disk and all, bochs will not open. I don't know how to solve this other then reboot :-(
But hey, thank you very much, I am glad I can access it.

It looks like the "mountvolume" call has failed. You should in any case quote the volume name if it contains any spaces.
What's the "-n" option for? Never seen it before.
You should use "mountvolume -l" first to see, what drives are available, and if yours is part of them.
If you have configured Tracker to "Show Volumes on Desktop", you should immediately see the drive there.

Found the virtualdrive, build it using jam ( why on earth is it called jam ) followed your instructions
$ mkvirtualdrive --install /boot/apps/bochs/c.img
File `test-file-device' registered as device `/dev/misc/virtualdrive/0'.
$ mkdir -p /dev/disk/virtual/files/0
$ ln -s /dev/misc/virtualdrive/0 /dev/disk/virtual/files/0/raw
then I did mountvolume -n no name ( that was the virtual drive ) no errors , but I can't see the bochs img, what did I do wrong?
Thank you

You need to download the OpenBeOS repository which is available either via CVS or as a nightly built sources archive, i.e.:
http://open-beos.sourceforge.net/files/OpenBeOS-src.tgz
Then build the "jam" tool which you can find in current/src/tools/jam in that archive (with "make").
The virtualdrive driver is at the location I mentioned earlier (dunno though if "openbeos" are part of the path specification - it is on my hard disk, though :-)).
Good luck!

Just tried it: you will indeed need the symbolic link to make the device available in DriveSetup.
Unfortunately, you can't mount the partitions using Tracker, though - they won't be visible there, dunno why.
But you can still mount the partitions by hand using the "mountvolume" call; but it should also be possible to use DriveSetup for that.
I am sure we can make the driver available as a binary in BeBits along with a short tutorial if you beg enough.

Well, in BeOS partitions are something special. To have those, you would need to have a virtual file driver that makes that file available as a raw disk.
That's certainly out of scope for this little application, *but* there is such a driver available.
Have a look at the OpenBeOS repository, under:
"openbeos/current/src/tests/kits/storage/virtualdrive"
you will find the driver you are looking for. Build it (you will need jam for that), and copy the "mkvirtualdrive" command to /boot/home/config/bin, and create a virtual device for your bochs image.
Then, since I am not sure DriveSetup will find the device (it's under /dev/misc), you should make a symbolic link from that device to something under the /dev/disk/ path.
The whole sequence will look like this (in the Terminal, after having successfully installed the driver):
$ mkvirtualdrive --install mybochs.image
File `test-file-device' registered as device `/dev/misc/virtualdrive/0'.
$ mkdir -p /dev/disk/virtual/files/0
$ ln -s /dev/misc/virtualdrive/0 /dev/disk/virtual/files/0/raw
After this, you can mount the partitions on that image using Tracker.

Bochs image is something completly different. AFAIK it's not partition image as it is with iso, bfs, fat, etc.. images, it's whole HD image, so emulated operating systems can be tricked to think they work on real HD.
So mounting application would have to first check if it's bochs image, than open it, seek particular partition data and than try to mount (which i'm not sure is possible, maybe it would have to first make partition's image to another file).
All of what i wrote is AFAIK, i may be wrong :)

Thanks Jace, I didn't know about this tool at all ;-)
The only difference of importance seems to be the ability to use "mountimage" in the Terminal, while ImageMounter can be used in the "Open With..." Tracker menu.
Heck, if I had actually found that other tool earlier, I wouldn't have done it... fortunately, it just took a few minutes to put it together.

Isn't there another image mount tool that can be used as a Tracker add-on? I have one on my BeOS system and I thought it was called Mount Image (I'm not there right now). Can you describe the differences between that one and this one? Heck, anything that comes from Axel is usually good, but I'm curious to know what the differences are. Thanks!
