Tools for extracting files from ext2,3,4 filesystem images

exttools

Some tools for reading ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem images.

I use these mostly to extract files from android system images.

EXAMPLE

This will export the entire filesystem to 'savedir'

ext2rd  system.img  ./:savedir

ext2rd

Usage: ext2rd [-l] [-v] <fsname> [exports...]
     -l       lists all files
     -B       open as block device
     -d       verbosely lists all inodes
     -o OFS1/OFS2  specify offset to efs/sparse image
     -b from[-until]   hexdump blocks
   #123       hexdump inode 123
   #123:path  save inode 123 to path
   ext2path   hexdump ext2fs path
   ext2path:path   save ext2fs path to path
   ext2path/:path  recursively save ext2fs dir to path
note: ext2path must not start with a slash
note2: /dev/rdiskNN is much faster than /dev/diskNN

ext2dump

Usage: ext2dump [-l] [-d] <fsname> [exports...]
     -l       lists all files
     -d       verbosely lists all inodes
     -o OFS1/OFS2  specify offset to efs/sparse image
     -b from[-until]   hexdump blocks
   #123       hexdump inode 123
   #123:path  save inode 123 to path
   ext2path   hexdump ext2fs path
   ext2path:path   save ext2fs path to path
   ext2path/:path  recursively save ext2fs dir to path
