The Sleuth Kit (TSK) is a collection of UNIX-based command line tools that allow you to investigate a computer. The current focus of the tools is the file and volume systems and TSK supports FAT, Ext2/3, NTFS, UFS, and ISO 9660 file systems
We can use yum or dnf to install sleuthkit on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install sleuthkit.
Install sleuthkit on CentOS 8 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
