Greetings
First, thank you for the ddrescue.
A feature request.
It would be great if "ddrescue --fill-mode" would write location
information (offset, sector#) into bad blocks. Something like:
--
OFFSET 0x06BF5200 SECTOR 0X35FA9
BADBLOCK BADBLOCK BADBLOCK BADBLOCK
BADBLOCK BADBLOCK BADBLOCK BADBLOCK
[..]
--
With bad blocks filled in that way, it should be possible to retry
recovering critical files, as location of the error is known by looking
into the critical file.
