The following, very non-robust shell code will give the mount point of $path:
(for i in $(df|cut -c 63-99); do case $path in $i*) echo $i;; esac; done) | tail -n 1
Is there a better way to do this?
Postscript
This script is really awful, but has the redeeming quality that it Works On My Systems. Note that several mount points may...

I have a need to make my data part of the machine's file system.

Pismo File Mount (http://www.pismotechnic.com/pfm/)
Of these 3 option 1 (Eldos) is by far the best looking option.

Given a path to a file or directory, how can I determine the mount point for that file? For example, if /tmp is mounted as a tmpfs filesystem then given the file name /tmp/foo/bar I want to know that it's stored on a tmpfs rooted at /tmp.
This will be in C++ and I'd like to avoid invoking external commands via system(). The code should ...
I have two disks as .vmdk files, and four as .vdi files. I can boot virtual machines on them with Sun xMV VirtualBox, and they work just fine. However, I want to mount them on my local computer so I can read some files off of them without starting a virtual machine. I downloaded the vmware-mount utility, but I get this error:

Currently when I open a file with my program I can select files on a server by clicking on the server name in the sidebar in an NSOpenPanel and then selecting the file. No problem, this works fine for using the file as long as the shared directory is mounted. I get a path like "/Volumes/SHARENAME/filename.bla".

On the emulator, I can unmount the SD card from the Settings.
I can then mount it on my OS, then unmount it normally.

hints:
the adb command remount is unrelated: it's about /system
the emulator command is unrelated: it's only about sta...
