Re: [Bug-ddrescue] Request for an Especific Clone Direction Option

Dear William,

if you want to make sure that certain areas of the drive are never read 
(as this causes further damage to the drive) I would not rely on 
predicting the recovery algorithm but rather adjust the log file.
This is probably a much more reliable approach and should be relatively 
easy to do (see 
http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/manual/ddrescue_manual.html#Logfile-structure 
).

Kind Regards
Felix
