For all the mac users that need to run multiple commands in the terminal, sometimes forget to do so and have to take the card out again and reboot, yada, yada, yada... Here's a script to do everything for you.
Features:
- disable and remove Spotlight indexing
- remove dot files
- remove dot underbar files
- remove fsevents traces
- fixes flags on all sdcard directories except Nintendo and Emutendo dir (as it might mess up installation files and cause corruption on installed titles/tickets)
- optionally ejects the sdcard when finished
Installation:
Drop it in your favorite directory. I suggest /usr/local/bin as it will be in system path automatically
Usage:
After you finish all your operations in your card, run it either by double clicking or via terminal (prior to ejecting). First run will ask for your volume name. Your sdcard label, basically. After this, it will remember it and will be able to find it. If you need to reset this setting because you changed the label, either delete the .switch-eject.conf file that will be created in your HOME dir or run the script via terminal using the -c flag.
You can also use the -e flag via terminal for auto-eject when finished. If you want the script to always perform the auto-eject, change line 71 from [ ! -z "${e}" ] && echo "Ejecting ${VOL}" && sudo umount ${VOL} to echo "Ejecting ${VOL}" && sudo umount ${VOL}
Enjoy
