It seems to me that after all WMIC is not "the" solution, but it may be part of it.

I seem not to be able through WMIC to "find a relationship" between PHYSICALDRIVEs and LogicalDrives when the device is "Removable".

Moreover it seems like the available data go as deep as finding Extended Partitions but not deep enough to find Logical Volumes inside them.

Find attached another example, it seems to me that it gathers all available data through WMIC.

Runnning listdosdevices with a /? parameters outputs a mess of data, maybe it can be useful.

A similar app is dosdev:
http://www.ltr-data.se/opencode.html

and on the same page there is devioctl.

Devioctl with the GEOMETRY <drive> parameters gives the needed info, <drive> can be:

• drive letter
  
• PhysicalDriven

(but it won't work -obviously- for Removable devices where no media is inserted )

I found one more powerfull disk tool here: http://technet.microsoft.com/zh-cn/sysinte...648(en-us).aspx

DiskExt v1.1 which gives each disk it mount volume and drive letters.

Yep , but it won't give you ANY more info than mountvol for Removable devices like SD card readers when there is no media in them.....

A more useful app is the dd for windows version by John Newbigin:
http://www.chrysocome.net/dd

try running

dd --list

In fact ervery thing about disk information is in the registry. I will try to get my answer there and not use others tool.

[victor888]

Diskpart and fsutil are no longer needed.
I found the secret in registry.
I am compositing the batch now.

ddlist.cmd is very handy and is giving for each drive all important identification parameters in one line.

Now it is easy to relate drive letter to harddisk and partition number.

For the layout it might be preferable to use no TAB and to make it similar to symbol2mvol.cmd

Thanks jaclaz for this batch program

Just for comparison with BootLand Forum http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?...=6492&st=10

Let's test the following CODE and CODEBOX for Copy and Paste in Notepad
using different Browsers:

CODE

 
Copy this text from CODE or CODEBOX in your browser display and Paste in Notepad
The second line has SPACE separated Words
The   third   line   has   multiple   SPACE   separated   Words
The	fourth	line	has	TAB	separated	Words


The seventh line appears after empty fifth and sixth line
 

The result using IE7 as browser is interesting and the same as for BootLand.
On Copy in Notepad we see:
For CODE the TAB character is replaced by 4 Spaces, rest is OK
For CODEBOX all CR+LF are gone (everything in 1 line), but multiple SPACE and TAB are preserved
For CODEBOX all empty lines are lost, but reappear in Post Edit or Post Reply Box

How does this compare to Opera or FireFox as Browser ?

Opera works correctly, 100% with CODEBOX, BUT with the CODE, TABs are converted in multiple (4) spaces. This latter behaviour is a known thing, and it is always a good idea when using TABs, to specify where they are.

I haven't a Firefox installed now, so I cannot say.

jaclaz

[wimb]

And Here are the results for Firefox:

Firefox Copy CODE to Notepad:
TAB is replaced by 4 SPACES, rest OK

Firefox COPY CODEBOX to Notepad:
TAB and multiple SPACE are replaced by single SPACE
Rest (CR+LF and empty lines) displayed and Copy OK

So Firefox is in this respect different as compared to IE7, but also NOT perfect

BootLand Forum gives the same results for Firefox as compared to MSFN Forum

CONCLUSION:
The most safe way to get your prgram code is to use Copy from Post Reply Box and Paste in Notepad

MY CONCLUSION:
The most safe way, not only to get a program in CODEBOX, is to use a GOOD browser (read OPERA).

Hi,

I just read this interesting topic, i would like to know if it's possible to remove space from %%A variable ?

I try to execute the following code :

Quote

for /F "tokens=1 delims=:\" %%A IN ('MOUNTVOL^|FINDSTR [A-Z]:\\') do net share %%A=%%A: /GRANT:"Tout le monde",FULL

Result is that the space in %%A will block the NET SHARE command.

Quote

c:\net share ........ E= .......... E: /GRANT:"Tout le monde",FULL

....... = space

I need to obtain the drive letter from MountVol without space behind.

Many Thks for your help.

Regards.

Go by steps.
Open a command prompt.
Run in it

MOUNTVOL

[ENTER]
How does the output look?
Now run

MOUNTVOL | FIND ":\"

[ENTER]
How does the output look?
Now run

FOR /F "tokens=1 delims=:" %A in ('MOUNTVOL ^| FIND ":\"') DO ECHO x%Ax

[ENTER]
How does the output look?
Now run

FOR /F "tokens=1 delims=: " %A in ('MOUNTVOL ^| FIND ":\"') DO ECHO x%Ax

[ENTER]
please note how the above has a [SPACE] between

"tokens=1 delims=:

and the closing double quote:

"

How does the output look?

Try using a few more lines! (attempting to compact everything on one line will not make your batch file run any faster)

@ECHO OFF
FOR /F "DELIMS=:\" %%A IN ('MOUNTVOL^|FINDSTR [C-Z]:\\') DO CALL :SUB %%A
GOTO :EOF
:SUB
NET SHARE %1=%1: /GRANT:"Tout le monde",FULL

Note I've changed the possible drive letters output to exclude A: and B: drives.
