Question regarding OSX:
Is there a way to determine the physical HD drive on which a volume resides?
I'm using FSGetVolumeInfo, but the driveNumber field of the returned
FSVolumeInfo always reports value 1 for all the volumes i try for (hd,
network, etc). I also always get value 0 for the driverRefNum.
And yes, the FSVolumeInfoBitmap for the FSVOlumeInfo call is correctly
filled.....

Any idea of what's wrong?
Other methods?

Thank you
Andrea

I am sure there is, but I am not sure if Carbon calls will let you do that. You
probably have to drop down to the BSD level. For example, statfs() looks like it
does some, but not all of what you want, and the df command gives you the
information that you want, but I don't know how it works. It source should be in
Darwin, though.
