RE: [sleuthkit-users] Mounting a dd image under windows

[youcef b. <ybi...@ya...>]

Hi,
It uses the concept of a loopback device, which allows
to mount a file system within an image file.

to do that you use the mount command with the loop
option to indicate that you want to use the loop
device to mount the file system within the image, and
you specifiy a disk image rather than a disk device.

Example:

mount -t vfat -o ro,noexec,loop image.disk1
/mnt/analysis
