I decided to use my second partition for /Developer.
10.5: Set a FireWire drive's mount point
I can answer one part for you: the reason it mounts on the Desktop is so you'll have a simple way through the GUI of ejecting the volume once you're finished with it. The volume you mount appears at the mount point as an alias of a mounted share, and of itself offers no "eject" functionality (i.e. right-clicking will not give you this option, nor will the File menu). Without the Desktop icon you'd be unable to eject the volume without Disk Utility or the Terminal. However, if this is something you'd be happy with, simply open the Finder preferences and elect not to have mounted volumes show on the Desktop or even the Sidebar. That'll take care of it. |
