NAME

       jcat - Show the contents of a block in the file system journal.

SYNOPSIS

       jcat [-f fstype ] [-vV] [-i imgtype] [-o imgoffset] [-b dev_sector_size] image [images] ] [ inode ] jblk

DESCRIPTION

       jcat  shows the contents of a journal block in the file system journal.	The inode address of the journal can be given or the default loca-
       tion will be used.  Note that the block address is a journal block address and not a file system block.	The raw output is given to STDOUT.

       -b dev_sector_size
	      The  size,  in  bytes,  of  the  underlying  device  sectors.  If not given, the value in the image format is used (if it exists) or
	      512-bytes is assumed.
