Disk Image Mounter

Disk Image Mounter

DiskImageMounter is the utility that handles mounting disk images in Mac OS X, starting with version 10.3. Like BOMArchiveHelper it has no GUI when double-clicked; in fact, doing so does nothing. It is found in /System/Library/CoreServices/DiskImageMounter.app. DiskImageMounter works by either launching a daemon to handle the disk image or by contacting a running dæmon and have it mount the disk. The only GUI the program ever displays is a window with a progress bar and mount options (cancel or skip verification) or an error report on why it could not mount the image.

Famous quotes containing the words disk and/or image:

    Unloved, that beech will gather brown,
    This maple burn itself away;

    Unloved, the sun-flower, shining fair,
    Ray round with flames her disk of seed,
    And many a rose-carnation feed
    With summer spice the humming air;
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    All things uncomely and broken, all things worn out and old,
    The cry of a child by the roadway, the creak of a lumbering cart,
    The heavy steps of the ploughman, splashing the wintry mould,
    Are wronging your image that blossoms a rose in the deeps of my heart.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
