Hello,

Normally, if I try to make an image of a healthy disk (3.5") with dd:
dd if=/dev/fd0 of=filename
I obtain a filename with 1474560 bytes length (2880*512).
The problem is: if I have one bad sector(512 bytes) on that disk, I want
to create an image with the same length. Something like that:
dd if/dev/fd0 of=filename conv=noerror bs=512 count=2880
This command skips the bad block, but the image file length's is 1474048
bytes.
How can I solve that?

TIA.
