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.
