copying a disk with ignoring errors

[Christoph Kukulies]

Thanks to all.

recoverdisk

was the one, indeed. phk was the original author. And that was the one 
that already helped me once.
Maybe I could have searched the archives  also and would have been able 
to find that previous message a couple of years ago.

I also found by searching archives, that ffsrecov, now ffs2recov, might 
be a tool for partially recovering a disk.
