try on your machine

The command mmls is used to analyze the structure and partition layout of a disk image file. It stands for "Media Management Lister" and is typically included in the 'sleuthkit' package.

In the command mmls ${path-to-image_file}, mmls is the command itself, and ${path-to-image_file} is a placeholder for the actual path to the disk image file. You need to replace ${path-to-image_file} with the specific path to the image file you want to analyze.

When the command is executed, it reads the disk image file and displays information about the partitions within the image. This includes details such as the partition number, start and end sectors, size, and file system type. It helps to identify the different partitions present within a disk image file, which can be useful for further analysis or extraction of data from specific partitions.
