Permission Denied when attempting to read /dev/disk5, which is a disk image #22

Link 0.2.2 arm64 binary release for Darwin.

/dev/disk5 is a read-only image, attached through hdiutils.

/dev/disk5 (disk image):

Is there any way to debug this ?

Bonus, would there be a way to just use a file from the file system instead of a device (pretty sure qemu would be quite capable of digesting all sorts of disk images)

In other news, it worked great to read my Asahi Linux disk, sudo linsk run dev:/dev/disk0sX vdb

Do you want me to make a PR to hint that you can pass a partition instead of a full disk (because disk0 has some partitions mounted on my host obviously) ?

Hi @GuillaumeDIDIER. Glad you were able to sort that out, and apologies for my delayed response. PRs are always welcome.

I haven’t sorted out my original issue (wanted to mount the disks of some old virtual machines).

I’ll make a PR with the other thing I found though !
