Can i hide a file with bmap????
 

i know u can hide text and i can hide most file that way(because they mostly are text or script)
But can i hide a binary file in a slack????

Why don't you just try it. Your system has enough binaries to play with...

so far i did'nt have any succes. the somewhat closest i got was with:
bmap --target (File with slack) --mode putslack (Binary file)
which get me a "seek error"

Or i just tried:
cp (binary file) (binary file).2 | bmap --mode putslack (File with slack)
gives me:
stuffing block 1107588
slack size 1490
block size 4096


#i made sure to check that the slack was big enough to hold the file.

well it did copy something in the slack but not what i wanted.

I can easily place the output of any operation mabe by or on a binary in the slack but not the file itself.

a "seek error"
Hmm. No idea why. Maybe run strace on it. Then again Bmap is rather old and I think it's not supported/maintained anymore.

How did you check? Read somewhere the kernel does show the right value but "stat" doesn't.
