Bug Description
Hi,
I'm VERY new to Ubuntu (still don't understand where my applications folder is!!!), but I'm desperate to learn and use ddrescue to try and perform some DR on a very important HDD.
Anyway to the question in hand.
I've installed ddRescue GUI and have started off the process and before it starts an alert pops up and says ...
We didn't get ddrescue's initial status! This probably means ddrescue aborted immediately ...
and underneath that ...
ddrescue:invalid option -f
Is that to do with "fill given type areas"?
And what do I need to do to fix it so I can get my wife's photos of our children back.
Thanks very much for what looks like an awesome program.
