Description : This utility allows you to limit existing partitions to
read only, no-read access or you can err/zero them out while creating an
own virtual drive with confined access rights mirroring the original.
Replacing the master boot record as well as individual partitions by
image files is also supported. This can f.i. be used by a virtual
machine to safely boot into one or more operating systems that reside on
the same disk as your host operating system. The documentation will tell
you how to use that with qemu or qemu-kvm.
