GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to rescue data in case of read errors.

GNU Ddrescuelog is a tool that manipulates ddrescue logfiles, shows logfile contents, converts logfiles to/from other formats, compares logfiles, tests rescue status, and can delete a logfile if the rescue is done.

The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html


Changes in this version:

  * The option "--fill" has been renamed to "--fill-mode".

  * The option '--generate-logfile' has been renamed to '--generate-mode'.

* During the copying phase, failed blocks containing one sector are marked as bad-sector instead of as non-trimmed. This avoids trying a sector twice when a cluster size of 1 is used.

  * "configure" now accepts options with a separate argument.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
