Hello, I'm looking for a way to have dd start on a particular block.

I need it to start on block 14,329,980 and end on block 28,659,897

How can I use the command to do this?
 
Have you tried this:
Code:
dd if=[some_device] of=[some_other_device] bs=[size_of_block] skip=14329979 count=14329918

--== Anything can go wrong. It's just a matter of how far wrong it will go till people think its right. ==--
 
It looks like it probably will.

Thank you.
