Installation¶
If you need an installation with basic support, you are suggested to run the following commands:
apt-get install xmount ewf-tools afflib-tools sleuthkit
pip3 install imagemounter
imount --check
The latter command will list all other packages you could install to expand the capabilities of imagemounter.
Python packages¶
This package does not require other packages, though the termcolor
package is recommended if you are using the
imount command line utility with the --color
argument.
If you wish to use pytsk3
support, you require python-dev and libtsk-dev. For compilation, the build-essential
package from your distribution is also required. After that, you can easily install the pytsk3
package from PyPI
(pip requires the --pre
flag to allow installing the package).
Other dependencies¶
This package highly depends on other utilities to be present on your system. For a full installation, you require more
tools. You can run imount --check
to get a full list of all required tools.
A basic installation contains at least one of the mount tools. Highly recommended is also fsstat
, others are required
for specific file system types.
You can install vmware-mount
by installing VMware Workstation on your system.
