The dd finished backing up after about 3 hours. $ sudo dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=/mnt/image.dd bs=1M ==> 152625+1 records in ==> 152625+1 records out ==> 160039240704 bytes (160 GB) copied, 9750.86 s, 16.4 MB/s Although I can't see to change the permissions of the result: $ ls -l ==> -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 160039240704 Jun 1 12:13 image.dd $ sudo chmod uog=r /mnt/image.dd $ ls -l ==> -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 160039240704 Jun 1 12:13 image.dd $ sudo chmod 555 ./image.dd $ ls -l ==> -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 160039240704 Jun 1 12:13 image.dd At this point, some people said to try to recover using the backup; while others said I should work off the original disk. I think I'll try the testdisk recover procedure first. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
