ifuse is a FUSE-based filesystem that support iPhone/iPod Touch devices.
INSTALLATION
For:
Apple iPhone/iPod Touch + iPod USB cable
You must have:
libiphone
libfuse-dev (and the associated kernel modules)
libglib2.0-dev
make
autoheader
automake
autoconf
gcc
To compile run:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install # (if you want to install it into your system directories)
On Ubuntu/Debian, you can do:
sudo apt-get install build-essential automake autoconf \
libfuse-dev libglib2.0-dev
(make sure that you have compiled libiphone first)
USAGE
Now comes the fun bit!
To mount:
ifuse < mountpoint >
Note:
If you mount your device as regular user, system migth complain that file /etc/fuse.conf is not readable. It means you do not belong to the 'fuse' group (see below).
To unmount you do:
fusermount -u < mountpoint >
By default, iFuse (via the AFC protocol) gives access to the '/var/root/Media/' chroot on the iPhone (containing music/pictures). This is the right and safe way to access the device. However, if the device has been jailbroken, a full view of the iPhone's filesystem might be available using the following command when mounting:
ifuse --root < mountpoint >
Note that only PwnageTool and older jailbreak software installs the necessary AFC2 service on the device to enable root filesystem usage. For instance blackra1n does not install it and thus does not enable root filesystem access! Use with care as the AFC protocol was not made to access the root filesystem.
Addtional help can be shown using:
ifuse --help
