  • Support for a new media image format...
  • Support for identifying a new filesystem...

Detailed Description

Investigate if there's any way for these sectors to be read, able to consistently be identified as unreadable due to burning method and not to loss of data, or otherwise improve Aaru's handling of them.

Context

This would either result in these sectors being successfully read, or for them to be determined to not be an error, so they won't show up in the error count and worry users that data might be lost.
