I am wondering if there is another option in ddrescue v1.8 similar to the -T (--try-again) available in ddrescue v1.13? I have run into a problem straight out of the manual (v1.13) where my 750GB drive failed 8GB into the rescue using the -n option on the first pass, however ddrescue continued to write the logfile straight through to the end as errors.
I'm afraid not. The --try-again option was added to ddrescue in version 1.10, and the ability to detect when a a device disappears from /dev was added in 1.11.
Is it possible to manually edit the logfile.
Yes. See the chapter "Logfile Structure" in the manual. Basically you'll have to change all the '*', '/' and '-' to '?'.
As well, if i do have to upgrade to v1.13, can i use the same logfile, and keep my current output?
From version 1.8, yes. See the chapter cited above if upgrading from versions older than 1.6.
