Well, OS9 was never really designed to be multiuser, though certainly their
abstraction does leak in this instance.

The problem is that images are not "first class citizens" like the real
devices, and I suppose they never integrated that into their permissions
system, at least not fully.

Is there a way to permanently mount the media to an otherwise unused label
name, or do the needed drive labels clash?
