Summary : Tools to generate and flash sparse images using the "block map" (bmap) format
URL : https://github.com/intel/bmap-tools
License : GPLv2+
Description : Bmaptool is a generic tool for creating the block map (bmap) for a file and
: copying files using the block map. The idea is that large files, like raw
: system image files, can be copied or flashed a lot faster and more reliably
: with bmaptool than with traditional tools, like dd or cp.
:
: Bmaptool was originally created for the "Tizen IVI" project and it was used for
: flashing system images to USB sticks and other block devices. Bmaptool can also
: be used for general image flashing purposes, for example, flashing Fedora Linux
: OS distribution images to USB sticks.
