# Mounting Raspberry Pi Images
The official image files are at [here] [1]. To mount these on a
filesystem you can use these tricks.
(first, extract the .img from the downloaded .zip)
## Gather required information
The image is a disk image (i.e. it contains a partition table and partitions).
We need to know the partition offsets within the image so that we can mount the filesystems.
$ parted archlinuxarm-01-03-2012.img
