<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>systemd-dissect</command> is a tool for introspecting and interacting with file system OS
|
|
disk images. It supports four different operations:</para>
|
|
|
|
<orderedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para>Show general OS image information, including the image's
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>os-release</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> data,
|
|
machine ID, partition information and more.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Mount an OS image to a local directory. In this mode it will dissect the OS image and
|
|
mount the included partitions according to their designation onto a directory and possibly
|
|
sub-directories.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Copy files and directories in and out of an OS image.</para></listitem>
|
|
</orderedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>The tool may operate on three types of OS images:</para>
|
|
|
|
<orderedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para>OS disk images containing a GPT partition table envelope, with partitions marked
|
|
according to the <ulink url="https://systemd.io/DISCOVERABLE_PARTITIONS">Discoverable Partitions
|
|
Specification</ulink>.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>OS disk images containing just a plain file-system without an enveloping partition
|
|
table. (This file system is assumed to be the root file system of the OS.)</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>OS disk images containing a GPT or MBR partition table, with a single
|
|
partition only. (This partition is assumed to contain the root file system of the OS.)</para></listitem>
|
|
</orderedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>OS images may use any kind of Linux-supported file systems. In addition they may make use of LUKS
|
|
disk encryption, and contain Verity integrity information. Note that qualifying OS images may be booted
|
|
with <citerefentry><refentrytitle>system-nspawn</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
|
|
<option>--image=</option> switch, and be used as root file system for system service using the
|
|
<varname>RootImage=</varname> unit file setting, see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>system.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

<title>Commands</title>

|
|
<para>If neither of the command switches listed below are passed the specified disk image is opened and
|
|
general information about the image and the contained partitions and their use is shown.</para>

|
<listitem><para>Mount the specified OS image to the specified directory. This will dissect the image,
|
|
determine the OS root file system — as well as possibly other partitions — and mount them to the
|
|
specified directory. If the OS image contains multiple partitions marked with the <ulink
|
|
url="https://systemd.io/DISCOVERABLE_PARTITIONS">Discoverable Partitions Specification</ulink>
|
|
multiple nested mounts are established. This command expects two arguments: a path to an image file
|
|
and a path to a directory where to mount the image.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To unmount an OS image mounted like this use <citerefentry
|
|
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>umount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
|
|
<option>-R</option> switch (for recursive operation), so that the OS image and all nested partition
|
|
mounts are unmounted.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>When the OS image contains LUKS encrypted or Verity integrity protected file systems
|
|
appropriate volumes are automatically set up and marked for automatic disassembly when the image is
|
|
unmounted.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The OS image may either be specified as path to an OS image stored in a regular file or may
|
|
refer to block device node (in the latter case the block device must be the "whole" device, i.e. not
|
|
a partition device). (The other supported commands described here support this, too.)</para>
|

<para>All mounted file systems are checked with the appropriate <citerefentry
