diskutil mount -mountPoint &lt;where you want to mount the drive to&gt; &lt;device name&gt;<br />

diskutil mount -mountPoint <where you want to mount the drive to> <device name>
diskutil mount -mountPoint /foldername /dev/disk1s1

<div>
I tried that and receive the message Volume Capsule on /Volumes/Capsule mounted. &nbsp;But it does not show up in correct folder<br />
<br />
I wanted to mount my external usb drive (called Capsule) in a folder called Drives on my internal HD called Lion<br />
<br />
So I did diskutil mount -mountPoint /Lion/Drives /dev/disk2s2<br />
<br />
Am I missing something?

Finally got it to work had to unshare the drive and then it worked flawlessly, how do I make it so that it is mounted every time the computer restarts.<br />

Is there a way to mount a drive in a folder with OSX, for example have volume "Datadrive" appear under the documents folder.  I've done this under linux but not certain of the correct syntax for OSX?

Mounting Drive in a Folder with OSX Lion

Mac OS X is the desktop operating system from Apple Inc., found on Macintosh computers. OS X consists of a Mach/BSD-based kernel, operating system interfaces primarily based on FreeBSD and additional frameworks (written in C, C++ and Objective-C providing user interface and application-level services.

Mac OS X

Apple's early computers ran on a variety of operating systems, including a Pascal version and one based on CP/M, before releasing its ProDOS with the advent of its 16-bit computer. With the release of the Lisa, which had its own OS, Apple and computing entered the graphical age; it was followed by the Macintosh, which offered a series of "System" operating systems. Other Mac operating systems included PowerPC until Apple acquired NeXT and folded it into the Mac OS. Current operating systems for Apple devices are Mac OS-X and iOS.
