Subject: missing partitions under /dev
Date: Thu, 09 Jun 2016 17:57:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DUB126-W13603CEE9C8DCEF7F84AE5CE5F0@phx.gbl> (raw)

I've connected a LG G2 via usb to the computer which shows as
"LG Electronics Inc. QHUSB_BULK" on Vmware workstation and
Oracle Virtualbox. The device has more partitions that those
shown under /dev on Cygwin as shows:

ls /dev/sdc*
/dev/sdc   /dev/sdc10  /dev/sdc12  /dev/sdc14  /dev/sdc2 
/dev/sdc4  /dev/sdc6  /dev/sdc8 /dev/sdc1  /dev/sdc11 /dev/sdc13 
/dev/sdc15  /dev/sdc3  /dev/sdc5  /dev/sdc7  /dev/sdc9

However:

$ /sbin/fdisk.exe -l /dev/sdc

Disk /dev/sdc: 29.1 GiB, 31268536320 bytes, 61071360 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: (removed)

I would like to access partitions that are listed by fdisk but aren't under /dev.
How can I do, for example to use dd to read from or write to one of those
"hidden" partitions?
