ddrescue reverse resume not working

April 28th, 2022, 11:26

Hello,

This is my second ddrescue run after the successful first run which I had to resume couple of times. In the second run I am using the -R (Reverse) option but surprisingly it is not resuming from where it was interrupted. It is starting from the beginning (I mean starting from the back of the disk). Anyone faced this issue before ?

ddrescue -d -n -vv -R /dev/sdc1 /media/sda2/test.img /media/sda2/recovery.log

Please help.
