guestmount
command mount a guest filesystem on the host using FUSE and libguestfs
. It is included in libguestfs-tools
package.
- Man page: https://linux.die.net/man/1/guestmount
Examples[edit]
guestmount -a path_to_image.qcow2 -i --ro /mount_point
guestmount -a path_to_image.qcow2 -i --rw /mount_point
Verify: mount .../... /dev/fuse on /mount/path type fuse (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0) .../...
-a your_image.qcow2
-i --inspector inspect the disks looking for an operating system and mount filesystems as they would be mounted on the real virtual machine -m mount
guestmount -a path_to_image.qcow2 -i --ro /mount_point
guestmount: no operating system was found on this disk If using guestfish '-i' option, remove this option and instead use the commands 'run' followed by 'list-filesystems'. You can then mount filesystems you want by hand using the 'mount' or 'mount-ro' command. If using guestmount '-i', remove this option and choose the filesystem(s) you want to see by manually adding '-m' option(s). Use 'virt-filesystems' to see what filesystems are available. If using other virt tools, this disk image won't work with these tools. Use the guestfis
libguestfs: error: findfs_uuid: findfs: unable to resolve 'UUID=8bc77dbf-2217-11e9-bf56-525400670XXX'
guestmount -a IMAGE.qcow2 --rw ./mount_point guestmount: error: you must specify either -i at least one -m option. Try ‘guestmount --help’ for more information.
guestmount -a your_image.qcow2 -i --ro ./dest_path/ libguestfs: error: /usr/bin/supermin exited with error status 1. To see full error messages you may need to enable debugging. Do: export LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1 and run the command again. For further information, read: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html#debugging-libguestfs You can also run 'libguestfs-test-tool' and post the *complete* output into a bug report or message to the libguestfs mailing list.
