Recover a dead hard drive using dd
Authored by: derekd on Oct 22, '09 01:23:11AM

Wow, I love this tip!

So I've crated a dmg file using dd as described but now (excuse my ignorance) how do I write a bit for bit copy to a new hard drive?

Can I just use DiskUtility or Toast or do I need to do a reverse dd command in the terminal? If the later is the case, what would the command be? Do I just swap the input (if) and output(of) names?

Thanks for any help.
