I know why; because he has a sparseimage on his TimeMachine airdisk that he wants to update. I have this as well. Time Machine does some magic to mount this ( Attempting to mount network destination using URL: afp://Bobos@airportextreme._afpovertcp._tcp.local/TimeMachine). So I'm assuming I can do a mount_afp afp://Bobos@airportextreme._afpovertcp._tcp.local/TimeMachine /Volumes/TimeMachine, then mount /Volumes/TimeMachine/10.5.sparseimage
I'm not using a Time Capsule so I have the luxury of disconnecting the USB drive from my Airport Extreme and doing the a initial backup (and restore if need be) over USB instead of over the network.
Anyone else doing this?
