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
	      supported	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	parti-
	      tion system 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	deter-
	      mine the address of the partitions.
