-ro | Mount in Read-Only mode only |
-re | Unmount before mounting |
-e | Express mode (quick search, skips if not found) |
-n NAME | Custom partition name to find |
-f FILE | Mount a file (RAW .IMG) or specific block |
# Default (RW or RO)
try_mount /cache /optics /prism
# Read/Write only
try_mount -rw /optics /prism
# Read-Only only
try_mount -ro /optics /prism
# Remount
try_mount -re /optics /prism
# Custom name
try_mount -n "system" /test
# Specific slot
try_mount -n "vendor_b" /test
# Express mode
try_mount -e /system
# Mount RAW IMG
try_mount -f "/sdcard/system.img" /test
# Mount block
try_mount -f "/dev/block/dm-0" /system_root
# Mixed flags
try_mount -re -rw /optics /prism
try_mount -e -n "vendor" /mnt/vendor
try_mount -ro -f "/sdcard/super.img" -n "system_a" /mnt/system_inside_SUPER
