Description-en: tool to crossmount between multiple input and output harddisk images
xmount allows you to convert on-the-fly between multiple input
and output harddisk image types. xmount creates a virtual file
system using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) that contains a
virtual representation of the input harddisk image. The virtual
representation can be in raw DD, VirtualBox's virtual disk file
(VDI) format, Microsoft's Virtual Hard Disk Image format (VHD)
or in VMware's VMDK format. Input harddisk images can be raw DD
or EWF (Expert Witness Compression Format) or AFF (Advanced
Forensic Format) files. In addition, xmount also supports
virtual write access to the output files that is redirected to a
cache file. This makes it for example possible to boot acquired
harddisk images using QEMU, KVM, VirtualBox, VMware or alike.
