LOOPMOUNT=`sudo losetup --partscan --show --find ${image}`

Can we create a powershell image to interact with NFTS active data streams?

• This works for powershell: https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/powershell/scripting/install/powershell-in-docker?view=powershell-7.4
• List of images? https://mcr.microsoft.com/artifact/mar/powershell/tags
• Example dockerfiles: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell-Docker/blob/master/release/7-4/ubuntu22.04/docker/Dockerfile
• Get-Command gets the list of installed commands.

Ideal:

1. Docker compose with mounted drive.
2. Mounted drive is NTFS.
3. We can inspect and edit data streams.
