|
||||
(description
|
||||
"GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one
|
||||
file or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to
|
||||
rescue data in case of read errors.
|
||||
|
||||
The basic operation of ddrescue is fully automatic. That is, you don't
|
||||
have to wait for an error, stop the program, read the log, run it in
|
||||
reverse mode, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use the logfile feature of ddrescue, the data is rescued very
|
||||
efficiently (only the needed blocks are read). Also you can interrupt
|
||||
the rescue at any time and resume it later at the same point.
|
||||
|
||||
Automatic merging of backups: If you have two or more damaged copies of
|
||||
a file, cdrom, etc, and run ddrescue on all of them, one at a time, with
|
||||
the same output file, you will probably obtain a complete and error-free
|
||||
file. This is so because the probability of having damaged areas at the
|
||||
same places on different input files is very low. Using the logfile,
|
||||
only the needed blocks are read from the second and successive copies.")
