Hello everyone, just a quick question,
can you confirm that FTK imager 2.9 doesn't support ext4 filesystems?
i was trying to have a quick look at a partition formatted with ext4 filesystem, but even if Imager detects it as a Linux Native FS it just says unrecognized filesystem.

anyone experienced the same issue?

I don't think many tools support Ext4 at the moment (though I stand to be corrected). However, X-Ways will read Ext4 and has been able to do so for some time now.
Now that the default file system for Ubuntu installations is Ext4 I'm sure that the users of forensic software will begin to start demanding support. If I was you I would post a bug report/request on the AccessData site.

Paul
