View 2 RepliesOn a Linux CD/DVD, there are compressed filesystem images for the live version for KDE or Gnome for example, but they have no extension, but they are clearly an image file ( compressed filesystem images for the live version before installation ) !!
I was wondering, How do I mount these compressed filesystem images, after I copy the ISO content of the CD/DVD on my system .... I want to edit some files or packages and make some changes, like if I want to customize a live version of gnome for example ! ... ( I know you might be tempted to tell me to use KIWI etc to customize etc ..... ) ... but I want to be able to mount the compressed file system image, then edit it for reading and writing while it is in a subdirectory on its own ... i want to open it ! ... is there a way to do this ??? ... these type of files have no extension ...
i can open this compressed filesystem image then to edit for read & write ... before I roll it back again ..... If and when I succeed .... what should I watch out for ? ... will the same compressed file image but slightly modified work again ?
PS. that same question could be kind of translated or be extended like : how do I use unionfs/squashfs programs on the command line to mount these image files with no extension for read & write mode ???
I was given a forensic Image which I now know is a DD image of the drive (Vista) and am trying to mount the image or extract the image to another drive. I'm not sure of the extention type or if the image is a partition or the entire drive. I think it is the entire drive.
Is it possible to mount a DD image to a device. If I can't do that I just want to extract the files to run some programs against the drive. Can I view the files under Ubuntu or do I have to remove the drive and stick it into a Vista computer.
I purchased a second drive today and was hoping the command line would be something simple.
Or am I on the wrong track, should I be doing this all in a windows environment. The reason I picked ubuntu was because of the reporting tools.
recommend a good image editing application for Centos?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a free image stacking application in Linux. I do a lot of macro work and I even use stacking for larger pieces of work as well. It allows me to create a better, larger DOF than you would normally get with a Macro lens, which tends to be shallow. If you have never heard of stacking images it is like stitching images together for a panorama image. Only this works by selecting the sharpest parts of the image. The images are stacked up on top of eachother, the software selects the sharpest parts of each image and the joins them all up making your object hopefully sharper. You need a tripod to do this work.

The problem is I need to run it remotely from my office. Most of the software I found either need to use bootable cd or need to unmount my partitions which is I wasn't allowed to since it's a production servers. I also tried dd but it consume too much time, sector by sector cloning and empty disk space also included so the file created also big in size.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried to get an opensuse box I have to share a directory via NFS. I've failed each time, but I thought that the third time, I'd enlist some help from the forums, if I could. how do I know that the nfs server and not the client is the problem? Short answer is: I don't! That's why nfs (and many netwrk problems) are laborious, you're troubleshooting needs to take place at both source and desitination. Next question, what do I have set up so far? Well, I did download the nfs server kernel stuff (two months back) and /etc/init.d/nfsserver start seems to get set up OK. No errors and the daemons nfsd, idmapd, mountd area all running. So, I *think* that part is OK. I have the share set up properly in /etc/exportfs and have "exportfs -r" it.
OK, now onto the trickier stuff: the client and iptables. On the client pinging to the nfserver box is perfect, and I have rpcbind running. the reported error is "mount.nfs: mount system call failed" though from experience nfs errors don't mean a whole lot.However, I will go off and check now and see if I need a mountd running on client-side too.Then there's iptables .... ouch, that could be a long and painful trek. I don't see any specific ports being blocked, and it's the iptables that the default v11.2 opensuse came with. I did turn them off and the problem was the same, so whether wishfl thinking or not, I'm hoping it's not an iptables issue.
I have problem to mount a compressed (ISZ) image under Linux, which was created by e.g. UltraISO? I am aware about user-space fuseiso, but it fails to mount these images, as I have reported in Debian bugtracker (correct me if I ddi something wrong). I ask the community for a help: I need a proved solution to mount these images without decompressing them.I believe that CONFIG_ZISOFS kernel option cannot help, as it refers a special RockRidge extension (per-file compression with mkisofs -z or mkzftree).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have installed numerous Linuxes and Fedoras. This is the 3rd F13 install - other 2 were no problem! This one has me stumped. I have tried dvd install, boot.iso on usbkey, netinstall on usb and dvd. This problem crops up each time! I always manage to get the disks reformated and partitioned but no further. If I go to screen F2, everything seems to check ok - the usb is mounted and visible. The partitions are mounted under sysimage, a loop device is mounted under runtime (cant determine what though).
All the boots result in "Select Partition" - looking for install.img. With dvd does not list dvd drive as an option. With usb - firstly search sda1 (no usb option appears initially), fails then show the usb drive! and it finds the install img! All strange. Logs all show that all devices are recognized and mounted (or mountable) and viewable. sysimages are all writable! (can copy files between etc )..
Anaconda last message was "transferring install image to install target". What is transferred and where should it be? What needs to be mounted can it be done manually from screenF2?? Is it possible to get more info out of anaconda?? Is there some way of bypassing that "tried " message as the only way out is a reboot!! I am getting desperate - I need this machine working for a field job very soon.
Is it possible to mount a virtual disk image like qcow2 as a rw filesystem? I would assume guestfs could do it, but I couldn't figure it out from the man page. Basically I want to be able to read and write to the contents of a Windows virtual machine, just like I mounted a physical disk.

I have an image of the entire disk created using dd. The disk structure follows:
The image was created using:
How would I, if it is possible, mount /dev/sda1 from the image so that I'm able to read the contents?
It's not an option to clone the HDD again, I know how to do it if I had only cloned the single partition by itself. I hope it's still possible with the current image.
I have a large qcow2 formatted disk image, which I use as storage. Often I need to move data to and from this disk image. I mount the disk using the qemu-nbd tool as follows:
modprobe nbd max_part=63
qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 /host/disk100G.img
mount /dev/nbd0p1 /home/rup/disk
But disk access fails every now and then in the midst of some I/O operation with an "Input/output error". At that point I have to manually unmount the disk and re-mount it so that I can run the program again:qemu-nbd -d /dev/nbd0umount joborkhaki/What could be the reason for this? Is there a better tool that I can use to maintain a qcow2 disk image?
my /dev/sdb contains
2 partitions with fat 32
2 partitions with NTFS
1 partition with LINUX ext3
and a swap linux.
I did :
Code:
dd if=/dev/sdb of=image_disk_sdb.img
How can I mount those several partitions?

I recently built the following items of cdemu from the svn repository: libmirage, vhba-module, the daemon, and the client. I have the library installed, the kernel module loading on boot-up of my system, but aside from that, I can't seem to figure out how to use the client.
I have tried manually starting the daemon a couple of times, but can never get past that part. I can't remember the exact error offhand (away from home comp right now) but it was something to the effect of not being able to create the virtual device "0" in /dev.
What is the proper way to start the cdemu daemon?
I have servers where the disk is partitioned into OS and application partitions. The application is rather sloppy with its file handles, and frequently when there is a system crash, its file systems get corrupted. This will cause fsck to halt the boot, requiring me to get on a remote console, enter the root password, and fsck the file systems.
Is there a way to have just the OS partitions get checked and mounted, then check the application systems, only after the OS is loaded, so I can ssh into the system, instead of having to use a bandwidth-hogging remote console?
The app partitions are already at fsck level 2 in /etc/fstab, but this doesn't prevent OS loading from halting. If I set the fsck level to 0, I don't want the application to start if the partitions are unavailable. Should I just leave the fsck level at 0? Or should have the partitions marked "noauto", then have a startup script run fsck and mount the app partitions?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a dd image of a full drive (as a file) that was using Truecrypt system encryption under windows. I want to mount the main partition from that image using Linux's Truecrypt. I am familiar with dd loopback devices and have the partition offset, but I don't know how I can mount it like this because I need to use the truecrypt command.
Is there perhaps some way to create a fake device file for the disk image that I can mount from within Truecrypt?
I am trying to recover some important data from a 273 gig NTFS partition that was used in windows 7. The laptop was dropped and would not boot the next day. As an external drive I could see 2 smaller partitions (30 gig and 500 meg), but the main partition was RAW and requesting to be formatted... so I came to learn about Knoppix 6.2.1 as my live boot cd and ran ddrescue to recover an almost complete image of the bad partitionddrescue -n /dev/sdc1 /media/sda1/image.img /media/sda1/logfile.logI then ran it one more time:ddrescue -r 1 /dev/sdc1 /media/sda1/image.img /media/sda1/logfile.logthe image was made with 741 errors (amounting to 160 megabytes)So Now I have my partition as image.img which I want to mount.
First I tried
sudo mount -t ntfs -o loop /media/sda1/image.img /mnt/recovered
sudo mount -t ntfs -o loop,force /media/sda1/image.img /mnt/recovered

I need to mount an audio only image file. The only program I'm aware of is cdEmu, unfortunately, since my upgrade to 11.04 x86_64, It was removed during the process. Any other programs/commands capable of mounting an image file? And no, I do not want to burn,extract, or convert. Just mount.

I am having a rather strange issue. I have windows 98 installed into a disk image that I use bochs to boot it with. I want to transfer some files to the image but now I am unable to mount it. I will attach the drive to the loopback device but when I go to mount I get wrong fs type bad option ... etc.
The command I used to mount was
Code:
#mount -t vfat /dev/loop0 /media/loopdisk
cfdisk shows it ok as does fdisk. shows as a fat16 file system. When I attempt to check it for errors using fsck.msdos I get
Code:
# dosfsck 3.0.6 04 Oct 2009, FAT32, LFN
# Logical sector size (64543) is not a multiple of the physical sector size.
When I boot into windows 98 in bochs and check the disk it tells me there is no problems.
