Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package ddrescue, which is
part of the utils section, and maintained by Ayman Negm
<negm at debian.org>. 

This package contains : copies data from one file or block device to
another.

dd_rescue is a tool to help you to save data from crashed partition.
It tries to read and if it fails, it will go on with the next sectors
where tools like dd will fail. If the copying process is interrupted
by the user it is possible to continue at any position later.
It can copy backwards.
