lde supports the three most popular file systems under
|
||
|
|
Linux at the time of its inception: ext2fs, minix, and
|
||
|
|
xiafs. It also has minimal support for msdos FAT file
|
||
|
|
systems and a nofs system in which case lde will function
|
||
|
|
as a binary editor. lde will attempt to automatically
|
||
|
|
detect the file system present on the device or file when
|
||
|
|
it is started, if it does not recognize the file system
|
||
|
|
present on the device, it will default to nofs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
lde allows you to view and edit disk blocks in hex or
|
||
|
|
ASCII mode, view a block that contains directory entries
|
||
|
|
in a readable fashion, and view and edit formatted inodes.
|
||
|
|
lde is a great help when recovering deleted files (see
|
||
|
|
doc/UNERASE included with the lde distribution for more
|
||
|
|
info).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The device parameter is a required option for lde. If
|
||
|
|
ommitted, it will print a warning and refuse to start. The
|
||
|
|
default mode for lde is to use a curses interface; this
|
||
|
|
can be overriden by some of the options listed below.
