Linux bzip2recover Command

Linux Command Manual

The Linux bzip2recover command is used to repair damaged .bz2 files.

bzip2 compresses files in blocks, treating each block as an independent unit. Therefore, when a block is corrupted, bzip2recover can be used to attempt to isolate the blocks in the file, allowing the normal blocks to be decompressed. This is typically only applicable for very large compressed files.

Syntax

bzip2recover [.bz2 compressed file]

Example

Repair a .bz2 file
