1 Hi!
2
3 This is a bit of topic here, but maybe someone has a solution!
4
5 I can mount dd produced image files (harddisk images) in FreeBSD or
6 Linux using different commands:
7
8 FreeBSD:
9 # mdconfig -a -t vnode -f ${HOME}/vc.img -u 4
10 # mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/md4 /mnt/win_c
11
12 Linux:
13 # losetup /dev/loop0 ${HOME}/vc.img
14 # mount -t ntfs -o ro /dev/loop0 /mnt/win_c
15
16 or if one prefers:
17 # mount -t ntfs -o ro,loop ${HOME}/vc.img /mnt/win_c
18
19 afterwards I can access this mounted volume as if it where a real
20 harddisk. Is there any way doing the same using Windows?
21
22 Any help pointing me to the neccessary tools is appreciated!
