This software is distributed under the IBM Public License found on the Licenses page.

Purpose

Opens the named image(s) and copies the file with the specified inode number to standard output.

Usage

icat [-hrsvV]  [-f  fstype] [-i imgtype] [-o imgoffset] image [images] inode

Options

Switch Purpose
-f fstype Specifies the file system type. Use the -? argument to view all supported types. If not given, the default type for the platform is used.
-h Skip over holes in sparse files, so that absolute address information is lost. This option saves space when copying sparse files.
-r Use file recovery techniques if the file is deleted.
-s Include the slack space in the output.
-i imgtype Identify the type of image file, such as raw or split. Raw is the default.
-o imgoffset The sector offset where the file system starts in the image. Non-512 byte sectors can be specified using ’@’ (32@2048).
-v Enable verbose mode, output to stderr.
-V Display version
image [images] One (or more if split) disk or partition images whose format is given with ’-i’.
inode Inode number. icat concatenates the contents of all specified files.
