Re: Using dd rescue?



dd_rescue -d -D -B 4k /dev/source /dev/destination

^^ all credit goes to Steve for that. 

If you can still mount the drive, you shouldn't have issues (most of the time). 

There are other safety precautions you can do such as using "-r" to go reverse if you start hitting errors at the beginning of the run. I'm sure the rest of the gang can provide more info too.

How cna I use DD rescue to recover a disk and copy its entire contents to another disk?  My 500 GB has reported 61 bad sectors and I want to transfer the contents to my 1 TB that is all free space right now.
