Subject: Convert VMDK to RAW
Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2019 17:12:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <009201d59b06$475883f0$d6098bd0$@fau.de> (raw)

Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am a PhD student at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg
in Bavaria, Germany and am currently working on a forensic reconstruction
tool. The tool can be used to analyze physical and virtual hard disks and to
reconstruct files. I would now like to extend the tool so that it is able to
analyze VMDK files and convert them to raw. Unfortunately I have not been
able to understand how to correctly unpack and assemble VMDK containers.
Since qemu is able to convert VMDK to raw, I wanted to ask you if you could
explain to me how to put the grains together?
Many thanks and greetings
Janine Schneider
