These components may be used in other Python projects. Refer to the\n[API documentation](https://imagebackup.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html)\nfor a comprehensive description of these components.\n\n## Virtual Partitions\n\nAt a higher level, three command-line utilities based on this low-level code are\nalso included. Their features are as follows:\n* They read partclone, partimage and ntfsclone images, verify checksums and\n  list contents.\n* They mount partclone, partimage and ntfsclone images - the backup of a\n  partition - as virtual partitions.\n\nThese virtual partitions have the contents of the partition. They are created\nwithout allocating additional disk space. Just like a restored partition, for\nexample, a virtual partition can be subjected to a file system consistency\ncheck (`fsck`).\n\nA virtual partition can be mounted as a file system. This is done with the\nhelp of a loop device and allows you to inspect the contents. Individual\nfiles and directories can be copied from image backups.\n\n# Full Documentation\n\nOur documentation is at [imagebackup.readthedocs.org](https://imagebackup.readthedocs.org).\n\n- [Utilities](https://imagebackup.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html#utilities-vpartclone-vpartimage-and-vntfsclone)\n- [Installation](https://imagebackup.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html#installation)\n- [API Tutorial](https://imagebackup.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html)\n- [API Reference](https://imagebackup.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#detailed-api-documentation)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjoergmlpts%2Fimagebackup","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjoergmlpts%2Fimagebackup","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjoergmlpts%2Fimagebackup/lists"}
