i have one question. i am running ddrescue on mac os x 10.4. i am doing
a direct copy from one device to the other. however the partition on
the target drive is slightly larger than the source. i am using this
command
./ddrescue -v /dev/disk0s3 /dev/disk2s5 RescueLog.txt
is this going to produce an unusable volume because the target is not
the same size as the source? i have not stopped the progress and tried
to mount it yet.
There is no problem copying data to a larger partition, except the waste
of space. At least it is not a problem for ddrescue itself.
If you have any problem to mount it after the rescue, you always may
copy the rescued data to a partition of the exact size.
