Today I will show you how to mount and access Windows BitLocker drive in Linux.

In order to make this possible, you have two things required.

1. Dislocker utility
2. BitLocker recovery password (8 groups of digits) and the ability to boot your system from USB.

------------------------
BitLocker Mounting Steps
------------------------
1. Download, Extract, Configure and Install Dislocker.
a. Extract: tar -xvjf dislocker.tar.bz2
b. Configure: aptitude install libfuse-dev libpolarssl-dev
c. Compile: make
d. Install: make install

2. Make a folder in /media/
a. mkdir Drive1
b. mkdir Mount1

3. Check your disk drives information and identify the partition which is bitlocked.In my case
/dev/sda5 is bitlocker drive.
a. fdisk -l

4. dislocker -r -V /dev/sda5 -p -- /media/Drive1

5. Enter your BitLocker recovery Password.

6. mount -o loop /media/Drive1/dislocker-file /media/Mount1

Note: All commands are case sensitive.
Replace your own bitlocker key and source partition.
