It will create an image file, e.g. hda2.dd
(from the example I mentioned, i.e. cat dir/hda2.dd-img.* | gzip -d -c > 
hda2.dd)

With the file hda2.dd, you can use command like:
dd if=hda2.dd of=/dev/hda2
to restore the image to /dev/hda2. Replace /dev/hda2 with yours.

///NOTE/// The dd command will overwrite everything on the target 
partition, so be very careful, and better to backup important data 
before you use that.
