GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying to rescue the good parts first 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:

* "direct disc access" now can copy arbitrary domains by reading whole sectors and writing only the requested part.

* An emergency save of the logfile has been added. It can be activated in case of ddrescue having trouble writing the logfile.

  * The maximum size of the rescue domain has been documented.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
