[sleuthkit-users] Linux and "unrecognized" sectors

[Paul S. <pa...@vn...>]

Hello all,

    I'm reading some articles and one that I have come across (was 
handed to me unfortunately no link) and it says that Linux will not 
recognize the last sector of a disk if it has an odd number of sectors.  
I had never heard this before and it has prompted a couple of questions.

1)  will this affect an image acquired using dd?

2)  will it affect Sleuthkit's handling of an image of this drive?

Thanks!

Paul
