Overview

This image (EncaseiLook, compressed dd) is to evaluate if an imaging tool can recognize the file systems that can be created on a Mac running OS X. The original drive was set up  five partitions:
The MD5 for the image is: 98116DC10E4B090B62321F1E4464973A and the SHA1 is: cb86d7677eda9baa2e2d99f09810c46ea635e3ce

The test image was created so that the hard drive appears to have been a Western Digital: Model (WDC WD200EB-00CSF0) serial # (WD-WTAAV4044563) with 201600 sectors rather than the usual much larger size for this model drive. This was accomplished by creating a host protected area at sector 201600 and then attaching the drive to the host computer with an IDE to USB bridge to hide the HPA from the imaging software. Then the CFTT diskwipe program  was used to write the C/H/S and LBA address to each sector and fill the remainder of each sector with 0xB9. This base configuration was then attached to a Mac and the following files were copied to the hard drive:

NOTE: the contents of the UFS partition were omitted from this list


The steps to create the image were as follows:

  1. Restore the base image created for the Russian Tea Room image. This gives a starting point of a wiped drive, each sector is filled with the sector address and hex B9.
  2. Attach the drive to the Mac.
  3. Run diskutility to create the five partitions (MacOSXJ, MacOSX, free, MacOSXD, free, MacOSS, and UFS)  with some free space around the MacOSXD partition.
  4. Copy the files listed above to the partitions.
  5. Execute ls -lR and capture the output.
  6. Eject the drive and remove from the Mac
  7. Attach the drive to an Intel computer, boot the IXimager and acquire the drive (logfile).
  8. Reboot into Windows 2000 and acquire the drive with EnCase 4 (report).
  9. Attach the drive a computer running Linux, acquire with dd and compress with bzip2
