blkcalc
disk unit numbers.
SYNOPSIS
blkcalc [-dsu unit_addr] [-vV] [-i imgtype] [-o imgoffset] [-f fstype]
image [images]
DESCRIPTION
blkcalc creates a disk unit number mapping between two images, one nor-
mal and another that only contains the unallocated units of the first
(the default behavior of the blkls(1) program). One of the -d, -s, or
-u options must be given. If the -d option is given, then the
unit_addr value is the disk unit address in the regular image (i.e.
from dd ). If the unit is unallocated, its address in an unallocated
image is given. If the -u option is given, then the unit_addr value is
the disk unit address in the unallocated unit image (i.e. from
blkls(1) ). Its disk unit address in the original image is determined.
If the -s option is given, then the unit_addr value is the disk unit
address in the slack image (i.e. from blkls -s). The image is the
full, original image (i.e. from dd). blkcalc was called dcalc in TSK
versions prior to 3.0.0.
-f fstype
Identify the File System type of the image. Use '-f list' to
list the supported file system types. If not given, autodetec-
tion methods are used.
-i imgtype
Identify the type of image file, such as raw or split. Use '-i
list' to list the supported types. If not given, autodetection
methods are used.
-o imgoffset
The sector offset where the file system starts in the image.
Non-512 byte sectors can be specified using '@' (32@2048)
-v Verbose output to STDERR.
-V Display version.
This is useful when keyword searching an image generated by blkls.
This allows one to identify the original unit address and provides bet-
ter documentation.
EXAMPLE
# blkcalc -u 64 images/wd0e
