How to mount .E01 forensic image file into linux

https://bwiggs.com/posts/2021-07-25-cyberdefenders-hacked/

Here Webserver.E01 is our forensic image.

Install Command line tools

  • ewf-tools provides tools to work with the EWF file formats
  • sleuthkit provides tools to work with the filesystme images (no need here)
  • kpartx reads partition tables on specified device and create device maps over partitions segments detected

$ apt-get install ewf-tools sleuthkit kpartx

 

Use root to do the following but here we are doing as normal user, you can see the dollar $ sign.:
$ mkdir mnt (this folder is created under /home/avi/ and assuming we are in /home/avi/ directory) 
$ sudo ewfmount /home/avi/Desktop/Hacked/Webserver.E01 mnt
  ewfmount 20140807 

Now to see the partition you need root access. Otherwise you will not be able to see that. 

# ls -la /home/avi/mnt

 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 32G Jul 25 00:36 ewf1

 

Now you can see that, ewf1 named partition is created. 


Linux LVM Partition for parrot:


$ sudo kpartx -a -v mnt/ewf1
add map loop0p1 (253:0): 0 497664 linear 7:0 2048
add map loop0p2 (253:1): 0 2 linear 7:0 501758
add map loop0p5 (253:2): 0 65562624 linear 7:0 501760


# checkout the lvm volumes and get their paths
 
$ sudo lvscan
