Hi all, I was wondering if I have a misconception of what ddrescue does when finding bad blocks or if this is an error on the man pages (or at least on www.gnu.org/s/ddrescue/manual/ddrescue_manual.html):
You write "Ddrescue does *not* write zeros to the output when it finds bad sectors in the input, and does not truncate the output file if not asked to." Later on you write "6) Optionally fill the bad-sector blocks of the copied drive or image file with zeros to restore the disc image." Shouldn't this be "Ddrescue *does write* zeros to the output when it finds bad sectors in the input, and does not truncate the output file if not asked to." ?
