Hello,
Can anyone please tell me whether guestfish can mount exFAT partitions?
I created a full disk image of a drive which contained a single exFAT partition.
Was able to mount it with kpartx/FUSE:
# kpartx -a -v disk.img
add map loop0p1 (252:2): 0 39070078 linear 7:0 2
# mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /mnt -o ro
FUSE exfat 1.2.3
# ls /mnt
foo bar baz etc
but not guestfish:
$ sudo apt install libguestfs-tools
$ guestfish --version
guestfish 1.32.2
$ guestfish -a disk.img
...
<fs> run
...
<fs> list-filesystems
/dev/sda1: exfat
<fs> mount /dev/sda1 /
libguestfs: error: mount: /dev/sda1
on / (options: ''): mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat'
<fs> q
Results identical under both Linux Mint 18 and Fedora 24 (which was running a slightly
newer version of guestfish, 1.34.2).
Sincerely,
Miles
P.S. I read about installing libguestfs-winsupport for NTFS in the FAQ, but it appears to
only be for RHEL:
