Unix-like command line utility that will convert between three different address types when an address of a different type is given. Specifications for the utility are as follows:
AddressConversion -L|-P|-C [–b offset] [-B [-s bytes]] [-l address] [- p address] [-c address -k sectors -r sectors -t tables -f sectors]
-L, --logical Calculate the logical address from either the cluster address or the physical address. Either –c or –p must be given.
-P, --physical Calculate the physical address from either the cluster address or the logical address. Either –c or –l must be given.
-C, --cluster Calculate the cluster address from either the logical address or the physical address. Either –l or –p must be given.
-b offset, --partition-start=offset This specifies the physical address (sector number) of the start of the partition, and defaults to 0 for ease in working with images of a single partition. The offset value will always translate into logical address 0.
-B, --byte-address Instead of returning sector values for the conversion, this returns the byte address of the calculated value, which is the number of sectors multiplied by the number of bytes per sector.
-s bytes, --sector-size=bytes When the –B option is used, this allows for a specification of bytes per sector other than the default 512. Has no affect on output without –B.
-l address, --logical-known=address This specifies the known logical address for calculating either a cluster address or a physical address. When used with the –L option, this simply returns the value given for address.
-p address, --physical-known=address This specifies the known physical address for calculating either a cluster address or a logical address. When used with the –P option, this simply returns the value given for address.
-c address, --cluster-known=address This specifies the known cluster address for calculating either a logical address or a physical address. When used with the –C option, this simply returns the value given for address. Note that options –k, -r, -t, and –f must be provided with this option.
-k sectors, --cluster-size=sectors This specifies the number of sectors per cluster.
-r sectors, --reserved=sectors This specifies the number of reserved sectors in the partition.
-t tables, --fat-tables=tables This specifies the number of FAT tables, which is usually 2.
-f sectors, --fat-length=sectors This specifies the length of each FAT table in sectors.
