NAME
     mmcat - Output the contents of a partition to stdout

SYNOPSIS
     mmcat  [-t  mmtype ] [-o offset ] [ -i imgtype ] [-b dev_sector_size] [-vV]
     image [images] part_num

DESCRIPTION
     mmcat outputs the contents of a specific volume to stdout.  This allows you
     to extract the contents of a partition to a separate file.

ARGUMENTS
     -t mmtype
	    Specify the media management type.	Use '-t list' to list  the  sup-
	    ported types.  If not given, autodetection methods are used.

     -o offset
	    Specify  the  offset  into the image where the volume containing the
	    partition system starts.  The relative offset of the partition  sys-
	    tem will be added to this value.

     -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.

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

     -v     Verbose output of debugging statements to stderr

     -V     Display version

     image [images]
	    The  disk  or  partition  image  to read, whose format is given with
	    '-i'.  Multiple image file names can be given if the image is  split
	    into  multiple  segments.	If only one image file is given, and its
	    name is the first in a sequence (e.g., as  indicated  by  ending  in
	    '.001'), subsequent image segments will be included automatically.

     part_num
	    Address  of  partition to process.	See the mmls output to determine
	    the address of the partitions.
