Re: How to read the data from the first sector of HDD

Where to find the the dd source code ??

I have no link right here (at home), but searching the Internet should come up with many locations. (I'd recommend _using_ dd, anyway)


Can i use the bios_disk() function in the linux. The corresponding
Header Flie is Bios.h

No. Linux is 32 bit and the PCBIOS calls need to be done in a 16 way. Moreover this will not help with the corruption problem at all

How to "call" command line utilities in a C program??

Using the appropriate API via the standard C libraries.

Sorry, I have no link right here (at home), but searching the Internet should come up with many locations. Maybe someone else might jump in.
