Dear Niklas,

I do realize it's not the scope of ddrescue to wipe
drives, but my particular use case IS mentioned in the manual as one of the
possible usage areas for fill mode, so I think it should be properly
supported. It's seems to me like a quite easy fix too, just add a command
line argument to ignore write errors.

Thanks for reporting this. It is reasonable to expect ddrescue ignoring write errors when wiping a failing drive. I'll probably fix it as you suggest, with a command-line option, to be sure that other uses of fill mode are not affected.


Best regards,
Antonio.
