NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       jcat   [-f   fstype   ]   [-vV]   [-i   imgtype]   [-o  imgoffset]  [-b
       dev_sector_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.

ARGUMENTS

       -f fstype
              Specify  the  file  system  type.   Use  ’-f  list’  to list the
              supported file system types. If not given, autodetection methods
              are used.

       -i imgtype
              Identify  the type of image file, such as raw or split.  Use ’-i
              list’ to list the supported types. If not  given,  autodetection
              methods are used.

       -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’.

       [inode]
              The inode where the file system journal can be found.

       jblk   The journal block to display.

EXAMPLES

       jcat -f linux-ext3 img.dd 34 | xxd
