Truecrypt: Mount and dismount volumes


Recommended Posts

  • 2 months later...

hi !

 

I tried, but It didn't mount or show anything to enter the password. 

 

I made this on the script : open -a /Applications/TrueCrypt.app/Contents/MacOS/TrueCrypt ~/dev/rdisk1s1

 

is it wrong ?

 

Thanks for your help

Hey Julien! Adding ~ really means  /Users/YourUserName/dev/rdisk1s1

 

And, for doing that you need to add sudo. Try this:  sudo open -a /Applications/TrueCrypt.app/Contents/MacOS/TrueCrypt /dev/rdisk1s1

 

For others: I have updated «Mount Volume» to be more dynamic. Now you can write tcmount nameToFile, and then mount it.

 

 

Happy mounting!

 

Update:

 

I have merged both workflows into one. See github for details :)

Hi Kim, thanks for posting such a useful workflow. I'm a rookie tho and cant seem to get it to work even reading the comments below; can you spell out how to modify the mount script?

 

I want to be able to put a USB key into my computer and then bring up alfred and type 'mo' and have it automount a specific TCcontainer file called TCUSBon the USB key.

 

I've tried modifying the script to;

sudo open -a /Applications/TrueCrypt.app/Contents/MacOS/TrueCrypt /Volumes/USB/TCUSB /dev/rdisk1s1

 

but cant get it to work?

 

tx a lot

 

PS great place Trondheim!
