Is it possible to crack a salt from hash with or without cleartext?

If you'd be so kind and explain it to me rather than acting all high and mighty that would be cool.

I don't even get what you don't understand here, if you figured out it's just about switching plaintext/salt.
After that it's just a matter of basic hashcat usage, go look a bit at the --help and check the wiki.

Also, don't be a bitch, it's not about "acting all high and mighty", it's more about not doing hand holding, and end up with dumb users lamely copy pasting commands.

Got a brain ? Use it.
