Subject:   recovering normal partition from vinum
Message-ID:  <Pine.LNX.4.44.0211051353380.9663-100000@palanthas.neverending.org>

I'm trying to recover as much data as possible from a vinum partition that
was on top of a faulty hd.  To make sure vinum doesn't wipe anything
accidentally, I'd like to get access to it as a normal fbsd partition or
slice.  Is it possible to tell dd to read the vinum partition, skip N
amount of blocks (the vinum header), and have a normal FreeBSD partition
or slice left?
