Description

Imge is a TUI tool for writing disk images to removable (by default) or non-removable (by -a option) drives. It's intended to be an easier to use and less error-prone than dd, since choosing the wrong disk may have a big impact on the data on your hard drive.

TODO

• Add ability to copy drive to file too.
• Compress/decompress image on the fly.
• Verify if data was copied correctly.
• Verify checksum before making copy.
• Support copying /dev/zero and /dev/urandom to the drive.
• Implement non-interactive mode.
