CrossOver allows you to add new drives to be used by Windows applications, and to change their label or serial number. If you need to create a new drive or have an application which depends on a serial number or Windows volume label then follow the examples below.
For example to make the path available as
the drive /mntJ: in a bottle, you would execute the
following command:
$ln -s/mnt"~/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/bottle-name/dosdevices/j:"
To associate this drive to the device
you would add a double colon to the command.
/dev/sda1
$ln -s/dev/sda1"~/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/bottle-name/dosdevices/j::"
For 'real' devices, CrossOver should automatically get the serial number and
label for a volume. However you can also set these manually. To set the
serial number of a given mount point you need to create a file called
.windows-serial on the root of the virtual drive.
$echo '12345678' >/mnt/.windows-serial
To set the label you would create a file called
.windows-label on the root of the virtual drive.
$echo 'MY_LABEL' >/mnt/.windows-label
