TrueCrypt: Open volume without mounting
- by Totomobile
I have a corrupt TrueCrypt volume. When I try to mount it, the password is fine but I get an error: hdiutil attach failed no mountable file systems.
I just need to open it without TrueCrypt trying to mount it too, so I can use that partition in a data recovery program. Also it's just an image file volume. I have read the documentation here:
http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/?s=command-line-usage
But I can't figure out which switch I need to use to only open an image and not mount it.
I am using the Mac version, and I have set up an alias for the TrueCrypt shell command, so I can just type:
truecrypt -t -v - ?? [][]..
