Tool to flash image files to block devices using the block map
|
|
|
|
|
bmaptool is a generic tool for creating the block map (bmap)
|
|
|
|
|
for a file, and copying files using the block map. The idea is
|
|
|
|
|
that large file containing unused blocks, like raw system
|
|
|
|
|
image files, can be copied or flashed a lot faster with
|
|
|
|
|
bmaptool than with traditional tools like "dd" or "cp".
