How to use with multple partition & drives?
Authored by: bussdriver on Nov 12, '02 11:28:53AM

Using the same command there is a built-in man page for it. Just type the command and it will list directions. Use the device path to indicate drives.
-----
I've already done this on my machine and it works just fine:

1)
diskutil list
(it returns a list of all drives)

2)
Find the volume you want (its name will be in there somewhere) in the list and its corrisonding device path, such as /dev/disk3s9 or if its a RAID, /dev/disk3
(The s# part is the partition number. Apple RAIDs don't seem to have the extra partitions for drivers and maps for some reason; so you just use the disk#)

3)
sudo diskutil enableJournal /dev/disk3s9

Note:
the disk should be already mounted before you run this command. (it says so in the directions)

ALSO, you can see if its on using:
disktuil info disk3s9

Why use de device path (/dev/Os**) instead of the path you get when you drag a disk to the terminal (/Volumes/***)???

What's the diference?
