1. This partition, /dev/sda6; is it formatted? If not. do

	mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda6

   The partition is now capable of holding files.

2. Mount the partition: mount /dev/sda6 /mnt

   The partition is now capable of receiving files.

3. Attach the defective hard disk to the machine which has the mounted
   partition after doing 'lsblk'. Do 'lsblk' again. Identify the name
   of the attached device, /dev/sdx. x=a, b, c etc.

4. Now: ddrescue /dev/sdx /mnt/repaired.img /mnt/repaired.log
