Hi John,
Sorry to not respond earlier but was busy at dfrws. From your paste it
looks like you are using the technology preview and not the Linux
branch. Admittedly I have not focused on Linux very much so linux is
probably less supported in this branch at the momem.
You should just type pslist rather than using the vol helper directly.
See the tutorial materials at
But you probably should do something like:
python vol.py --profile Linux32 --profile_file "myprofile.zip" -f
"/dev/pmem"
In [1]: pslist
Michael.

 Hi Folks,
                Sorry you only seem to hear from me about once a year, but I got fired up
over Joe’s & Andrew’s Forensic Summit presentations and resolved to try out the new
stuff in the Linux & Mac branches. Unfortunately I don’t seem to have gotten very far
with it. I’ve got the scudette branch installed on a SIFT Kit VM, and have successfully
used LiME to dump memory from it. I’ve also successfully created a profile for the SIFT
Kit’s 2.6.31-23-generic kernel, using json I successfully dumped from module_dwarf.ko. I
even tried the  live /dev/pmem  memory interface you get when you load up the pmem.ko
module. When I attempt to run Volatility , here’s what happens…
 root@SIFT-Workstation:~/Desktop/linux_Volatility/lin64-support# python vol.py
