Re: [sleuthkit-users] TSK_VS_PART_INFO slot_num & table_num questions

[Brian C. <ca...@sl...>]

Hey Jon,

Disks formatted with DOS partitions can have multiple tables.  There is the primary tables and then extended tables.  The table_num increments for each of those extended tables. Other more sane partitioning systems will only have one table. 

Slot number is the entry in the table.   I'd need to review the code for exactly when -1 comes up.  When do you see it?
