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 partition 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 determine the address of
              the partitions.
