NAME

jcat - Show the contents of a block in the file system journal.

SYNOPSIS

jcat  [-f  fstype  ]  [-vV]  [-i  imgtype]  [-o imgoffset] [-b dev_sec-
tor_size] image [images] ] [ inode ] jblk

DESCRIPTION

jcat shows the contents of a journal block in the file system journal. The inode address of the journal can be given or the default location will be used. Note that the block address is a journal block address and not a file system block. The raw output is given to STDOUT.

-o imgoffset
The sector offset where the file system starts in the image.
-b dev_sector_size
The size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors. If not given, the value in the image format is used (if it exists) or 512-bytes is assumed.
-V Display version
-v verbose output
image [images]
One (or more if split) disk or partition images whose format is given with '-i'.
