Hard Disk Failure

/me can't stand it when people who can't read man pages write new
utils to do things that can be done with options to existing commands:

 % n=0
 % dd if=/my/bad/drive of=/target/drive skip=$n seek=$n conv=sync,noerror

okay, okay, so maybe my command can't copy the partitions
BACKWARDS...but... *scratches head*
