Hello Ian, Ian Abbott wrote:
My idea is that it should be fairly easy to modify a utility such as 'partclone' (actually, a suite of utilities for cloning various file systems) to spit out a ddrescue log file. If it spat out a '?' for the used areas of the file system and a 'X' (or whatever will mean "don't care") for the unused areas, this log file could be used by ddrescue to recover only the used areas of the file system, ignoring the unused areas.
I think this could be better done by using such generated logfile as argument to the option --domain-logfile. In this case '+' should be used for the used areas and '?' could be used for the "don't care" areas.
