Let's go there and see this partition.īut, wait! Our hex editor shows offsets in bytes, not in sector numbers. That means This FAT32 partition begins at the sector number 2048. Let's use the calculator to convert this hexadecimal number to decimal. The number you get once you revert it from little-endian format is 00 00 08 00. We have to reverse the order of these bytes before interpreting. That means, the last byte is the most significant byte. This is a number stored in little-endian format. We need to interpret this number carefully. So, this value represents the starting sector of the FAT32 partition. When you look at the partition entry, you can see that this value is 00 08 00 00.

(6) Next question that arises is where is this FAT32 partition in the disk image? How to locate it? Again our reference document tells us that the offset 0x08 of the partition entry contains 4 bytes which specify the starting sector of this partition. So we will be able to explore this partition. Our reference document tells us that this value means, our partition is a FAT32 partition. That information is available in the offset 0x04 location in the partition entry.

(5) Another useful information is what type of file system is available on this partition. That means, no this is not a bootable partition. That means whether this partition contains an operating system or not. The very first byte in this entry tells us whether this partition is bootable or not. (4) Let's start interpreting this partition entry. Now, when we look at the partition table that we just extracted from our image, we can see that there's only one partition entry there. Empty partition entries are filled with zeros. That means it can accommodate up to 4 partition entries. (3) Once again, a glance at the structure of a partition table entry tells us that an entry in the table is 16 bytes long and the whole table is 64 bytes long.
