That doesn't sound like a backup to me. dd isn't a backup program, and CDs are not normally things you back up.
A backup is just a copy of the data on a different media than the source (in this case, a hard drive). People back up CDs alll the time, in case they get scratched or damaged, and they don't want to have to deal with finding/obtaining replacements. In some cases, the replacements aren't even possible, such as if the distributing company went out of business.
Use the conv=sync operation to transfer the last incomplete block correctly.
Ahh, that will be useful. Thank you. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
