Name : dd_rescue Product : Fedora EPEL 5 Version : 1.23 Release : 1.el5 URL : http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/ddrescue/ Summary : Fault tolerant "dd" utility for rescuing data from bad media Description : ddrescue is a utility similar to the system utility "dd" which copies data from a file or block device to another. ddrescue does however not abort on errors in the input file. This makes it suitable for rescuing data from media with errors, e.g. a disk with bad sectors.

This package includes dd_rhelp, a wrapper script facilitating data recovery.
