# bmaptool
> Create or Copy blockmaps intelligently (and therefore faster than `cp` or `dd`).
- Create a blockmap from image file.
`bmaptool create -o {{blockmap.bmap}} {{source.img}}`
- Copy an image file into sdb.
`bmaptool copy --bmap {{blockmap.bmap}} {{source.img}} {{/dev/sdb}}`
- Copy a compressed image file into sdb.
`bmaptool copy --bmap {{blockmap.bmap}} {{source.img.gz}} {{/dev/sdb}}`
- Copy an image file into sdb without using a blockmap.
`bmaptool copy --nobmap {{source.img}} {{/dev/sdb}}`
