err...... what is sdd? |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
If it is significantly faster than dd/dcfldd, then sdd may be the magic |
| 25 |
bullet! E.G. one would: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
1. sdd if=/dev/something bs=xx -md5 -o /dev/somethingout |
| 28 |
2. sdd if=/dev/somethingout bs=xx -md5 -o null |
| 29 |
|

Of course, one might ask, "is it on Knopix?" |
