Because the program exits, I cant seem to make it process a bin file from magnet forensics or an image that was converted from the bin file.  Also startting the container fails every time with this.

Hey Rob,
Your command line needs a small tweak, from:
psteal.py --source w/image/wesert.e01 -o dynamic -w registrar.csv

to 

psteal.py   -o dynamic -w registrar.csv w/image/wesert.e01

Give that a try, and see if that clears things up.

-Daniel

psteal.py   -o dynamic -w registrar.csv w/image/wesert.e01 didnt work but generated this.

psteal.py: error: unrecognized arguments: w/image/wesert.e01

log2timeline.py and psteal.py have different arguments have a close look at their --help information
