OSFMOUNT: mounting image with several windowsversions on different partitions

[koenie62]

LS,

Does osfmount always mount the windows partition when theres only one version of windows installed on a imaged disk with several partitions. (e.g. recovery partition-windows partition- data partition) Does it look for the windows partition and how does it determine the windows partition.

What happens when there are more windows partitions on a imaged disk.
disk (0) -part 1: windows xp - part 2: windows 7 - part 3: windows 8 - part 4: data.

does osf mount mount al 3 partitions to different drive-letters.

for my script i need to mount the windows partition(s) to extract register hives (sam-software-system) and ntuser.dat per user.

i have to use the cli.

OSFMount doesn't try and guess what partition you are interested in; you need to select the partition you want to mount.

In the command line, you need to specify the -v [partition number] option to indicate which partition you want to mount. The partition number is 1-based (first partition is 1, second partition is 2, etc...)
