Does the UltimateBootCD have my favorite hard drive data recovery tool
"gnu ddrescue" ?
  http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html

I use ddrescue to salvage data from a dying hard drive. It does a
great job with bad blocks on the drive, re-reading them several times
in order to extract every last byte from a failing block.
