Are there any opensource tools that will allow you to look at unallocated space on a reiserfs?
WinHex supports ReiserFS, you can download the basic version for free. You should be able to view the whole disk & associated allocated and unallocated areas …
Note Not open source - but people use "open source" and "free to use" interchangeably - not sure which one you meant -)
My desire is to not purchase anything but will if I must.
I would expect that a Hex editor would be able to read any file am I correct? I think I could accomplish the same results using strings.
More specifically, I am looking for a sleuth kit’s fls command that will work on a reiserfs partition.
Whilst WinHex _is_ a hex editor, it has a fundamental understanding of ReiserFS, being able to look into the filesystem, showing existing files, and unallocated space.
I don't think that Sleuthkit supports ReiserFS at this point in time.
