NAME
mmcat - Output the contents of a partition to stdout
SYNOPSIS
mmcat [-t mmtype ] [-o offset ] [ -i imgtype ] [-b dev_sector_size]
[-vV] image [images] part_num
DESCRIPTION
mmcat outputs the contents of a specific volume to stdout. This allows
you to extract the contents of a partition to a separate file.
ARGUMENTS
-t mmtype
Specify the media management type. Use '-t list' to list the
supported types. If not given, autodetection methods are used.
-o offset
Specify the offset into the image where the volume containing
the partition system starts. The relative offset of the parti-
tion system will be added to this value.
-b dev_sector_size
The size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors. If not
given, the value in the image format is used (if it exists) or
512-bytes is assumed.
-i imgtype
Identify the type of image file, such as raw. Use '-i list' to
list the supported types. If not given, autodetection methods
are used.
-v Verbose output of debugging statements to stderr
-V Display version
image [images]
The disk or partition image to read, whose format is given with
'-i'. Multiple image file names can be given if the image is
split into multiple segments. If only one image file is given,
and its name is the first in a sequence (e.g., as indicated by
ending in '.001'), subsequent image segments will be included
automatically.
part_num
Address of partition to process. See the mmls output to deter-
mine the address of the partitions.
