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
/mnt
J:
in a bottle, you would execute the following
command:
$
ln -s
/mnt
"~/.cxoffice/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
"~/.cxoffice/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
