Hi Nio, I downloaded it! And looked through it for a brief moment. It looks incredible! I will test it out, as I will be needing to make a dd image soon! I just got a replacement HD for an older computer.
DD is great, but also in the hands of a novice is terrible. This is the way I like to make USB so this tool is perfect for it! Maybe this will be in the repos one day!
