Mount vhd file under Linux

To mount a vhd file under Linux (tested with Debian buster), firstly get the following;



apt install libguestfs-tools


then do;

virt-list-partitions FILE.vhd


where FILE.vhd is the filename in the current path of the vhd file. This will show us which partitions are in the image, such as /dev/sda1

We can then do;

guestmount -a FILE.vhd -m /dev/sda1 --ro /media/vhd

where FILE.vhd is the name of the vhd file (as before), /dev/sda1 is the output from the previous command and /media/vhd is the mount point.
