bmaptool

Create or copy block maps intelligently (designed to be faster than `cp` or `dd`).

More information.

• Create a blockmap from image file:

bmaptool create -o {blockmap.bmap} {source.img}

• Copy an image file into sdb:

bmaptool copy --bmap {blockmap.bmap} {source.img} {/dev/sdb}

• Copy a compressed image file into sdb:

bmaptool copy --bmap {blockmap.bmap} {source.img.gz} {/dev/sdb}

• Copy an image file into sdb without using a blockmap:

bmaptool copy --nobmap {source.img} {/dev/sdb}
