6 blkls - List or output file system data units.

10 dev_sector_size] image [images] [start-stop]

14 blkls opens the named image(s) and copies file system data units
15 (blocks). By default, blkls copies the contents of unallocated data
16 blocks. blkls was called dls in TSK versions prior to 3.0.0. blkls
17 was called unrm in TCT.
18
19
21 -e Copy every block, including file system metadata blocks. The
22 output is the entire file system.
23
24 -a Display all allocated blocks (same as -e if -A is also given).
25
26 -A Display all unallocated blocks (same as -e if -a is also given).
27 This is the default behavior.
28
29 -f fstype
30 Specifies the file system type. Use '-f list' to list the sup‐
31 ported file system types. If not given, autodetection methods
32 are used.
33
34 -i imgtype
35 Identify the type of image file, such as raw. Use '-i list' to
36 list the supported types. If not given, autodetection methods
37 are used.
38
39 -o imgoffset
40 The sector offset where the file system starts in the image.
41
42 -b dev_sector_size
43 The size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors. If not
44 given, the value in the image format is used (if it exists) or
45 512-bytes is assumed.
46
47 -l List the data information in time machine format.
48
49 -s Copy only the slack space of the image.
50
51 -v Turn on verbose mode, output to stderr.
52
53 -V Display version.
54
55 image [images]
56 The disk or partition image to read, whose format is given with
57 '-i'. Multiple image file names can be given if the image is
58 split into multiple segments. If only one image file is given,
59 and its name is the first in a sequence (e.g., as indicated by
60 ending in '.001'), subsequent image segments will be included
61 automatically.
62
63 start-stop ...
64 Examine the specified block number or number range.
