This mail ain't about a bug, of a fix, this mail is to tell you guys, who made this wonderful tool, a big thank you! You helped me, with ddrescue, to save a software raid 1 from dying. The data couldn't replicate because of a power outage that caused some bad sectors, and the raid to reconstruct. Well, raid cannot coexist with bad sectors and the worst part was that the bad sectors were on the drive containing the data. But ddrescue did the trick, it managed to clone the drive onto another identical drive!!!! Of course the raid wasn't working, I had to reconfigure and rebuild, but without data loss!!!

I'm still euphoric about this...


Thank you so very much!
