Hi Doug,
A silly thing I noticed while playing around with file system meta-data...
file-systems produces a duplicate entry on my system (Windows 7). I think
this is due to Win 7's "System Reserved Partition".
( scratchpad ) file-systems .
{
T{ win32-file-system-info
{ device-name "System" }
{ mount-point "C:\\" }
{ type "NTFS" }
{ available-space 50689634304 }
{ free-space 50689634304 }
{ used-space 29229678592 }
{ total-space 79919312896 }
{ max-component 255 }
{ flags 65470719 }
{ device-serial 3794666122 }
}
T{ win32-file-system-info
{ device-name "System" }
{ mount-point "C:\\" }
{ type "NTFS" }
{ available-space 50689634304 }
{ free-space 50689634304 }
{ used-space 29229678592 }
{ total-space 79919312896 }
{ max-component 255 }
{ flags 65470719 }
{ device-serial 3794666122 }
}
T{ file-system-info { mount-point "D:\\" } }
}
( scratchpad ) find-volumes .
{
"\\\\?\\Volume{bb41c5b0-5639-11de-b478-806e6f6e6963}\\"
"\\\\?\\Volume{bb41c5b1-5639-11de-b478-806e6f6e6963}\\"
"\\\\?\\Volume{bb41c5b4-5639-11de-b478-806e6f6e6963}\\"
}
( scratchpad ) find-volumes [ volume>paths ] map concat .
{ "" "C:\\" "D:\\" }
As you can see, the first volume maps to an empty path (I guess because the
system reserved partition has no mount point?), which is later transformed
to match the root of the current-directory in M: string (normalize), causing
the duplication. In any case it is a different partition than the one I
called "System". Whether it's still a volume one would want to get
information on, I don't know.
I'd look further but I don't know anything about the alien stuff (working on
it) :p .
