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.
Ddrescuelog is a tool that manipulates ddrescue mapfiles, shows mapfile
contents, converts mapfiles to/from other formats, compares mapfiles,
tests rescue status, and can delete a mapfile if the rescue is done.
The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html
Changes in this version:
* The mapfile is now "fsync'ed" every 5 minutes because some systems
seem to never write the mapfile to disc.
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
