How do you unpack a .bin file containing a DOS/MBR Boot Sector and another undetected filesystem. I've ran binwalk on it and it showed me the (estimated) locations of data and their types. The output of file is: chromeos_15393.58.0_reven_recovery_stable-channel_mp-v2.bin: DOS/MBR boot sector; partition 1 : ID=0xc, active, start-CHS (0x16,176,27), end-CHS (0x1e,216,58), startsector 364544, 131072 sectors; partition 2 : ID=0xee, start-CHS (0x0,0,2), end-CHS (0x0,0,2), startsector 1, 1 sectors From this information I knew there was a Boot Sector at the beginning, but where are the files from the Image and how can I get them. FYI it is ChromeOS based on Android (and Android is based on Linux) the ZIP containing the .bin is located [here](https://support.google.com/chromeosflex/answer/11541904) . I have dded the Disk Image to a USB and am using it from there. I tried gdisk on it and this was the result: GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.10 Caution! After loading partitions, the CRC doesn't check out! Warning! Main partition table CRC mismatch! Loaded backup partition table instead of main partition table! Warning! One or more CRCs don't match. You should repair the disk! Main header: OK Backup header: OK Main partition table: ERROR Backup partition table: OK Partition table scan: MBR: hybrid BSD: not present APM: not present GPT: damaged Found valid MBR and corrupt GPT. Which do you want to use? (Using the GPT MAY permit recovery of GPT data.) 1 - MBR 2 - GPT 3 - Create blank GPT Your answer: 2 Disk /dev/sdb: 61341696 sectors, 29.3 GiB Model: Cruzer Blade Sector size (logical/physical): 512/512 bytes Disk identifier (GUID): 1F1C043E-3E55-B14D-94F1-3962AC2C5E25 Partition table holds up to 128 entries Main partition table begins at sector 2 and ends at sector 33 First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 13815959 Partitions will be aligned on 1-sector boundaries Total free space is 266217 sectors (130.0 MiB) Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name 1 5414912 13815944 4.0 GiB 8300 STATE 2 69 32836 16.0 MiB 7F00 KERN-A 3 499712 5414911 2.3 GiB 7F01 ROOT-A 4 32837 65604 16.0 MiB 7F00 KERN-B 5 495616 499711 2.0 MiB 7F01 ROOT-B 6 65 65 512 bytes 7F00 KERN-C 7 66 66 512 bytes 7F01 ROOT-C 8 331776 364543 16.0 MiB 8300 OEM 9 67 67 512 bytes 7F02 reserved 10 68 68 512 bytes 7F02 reserved 11 64 64 512 bytes 7F03 RWFW 12 364544 495615 64.0 MiB EF00 EFI-SYSTEM When I saw the "corrupt GPT" I was confused. It cannot possibly be corrupt. And to be fully honest, the names of the areas would make sense for a Linux install (eg EFI-SYSTEM, KERN-A).
