I'm trying to use 'sdd' on my Debian system, and can't get one set of options to work. They do work in 'dd' so I am wondering if I am specifying them incorrectly, or if sdd didn't implement them, or something else.
What I want to do is
sdd if=/dev/hdh1 of=/bay5/imagebay1 bs=4096 conv=sync,noerror
if I leave out the "conv=..." option, it works, or at least starts copying data.
sdd if=/dev/hdh1 of=/bay5/imagebay1 bs=4096
Can you shed a bit of light?
