The dd utility can either be used to copy an entire disk or any sectors of the disk that you specify. You can easily use it to make a copy of any MBR partition. You need to know the starting sector for your partition and the number of sectors in that partition. Then you use the "skip" option to skip to the start sector of the partition and the "count" option to specify the number of sectors to copy.

imagefilledarc - Draw a partial arc and fill it

SYNOPSIS
bool imagefilledarc (resource $image, int $cx, int $cy, int $width, int $height, int $start, int $end, int $color, int $style) DESCRIPTION
Draws a partial arc centered at the specified coordinate in the given $image. PARAMETERS
o $ image -An image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor(3). o $cx - x-coordinate of the center. o $cy - y-coordinate of the center. o $width - The arc width. o $height - The arc height. o $start - The arc start angle, in degrees. o $end - The arc end angle, in degrees. 0o is located at the three-o'clock position, and the arc is drawn clockwise. o $color - A color identifier created with imagecolorallocate(3). o $style - A bitwise OR of the following possibilities: o IMG_ARC_PIE o IMG_ARC_CHORD o IMG_ARC_NOFILL o IMG_ARC_EDGED IMG_ARC_PIE and IMG_ARC_CHORD are mutually exclusive; IMG_ARC_CHORD just connects the starting and ending angles with a straight line, while IMG_ARC_PIE produces a rounded edge. IMG_ARC_NOFILL indicates that the arc or chord should be outlined, not filled. IMG_ARC_EDGED, used together with IMG_ARC_NOFILL, indicates that the beginning and ending angles should be connected to the center - this is a good way to outline (rather than fill) a 'pie slice'. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Creating a 3D looking pie <?php // create image $image = imagecreatetruecolor(100, 100); // allocate some colors $white = imagecolorallocate($image, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF); $gray = imagecolorallocate($image, 0xC0, 0xC0, 0xC0); $darkgray = imagecolorallocate($image, 0x90, 0x90, 0x90); $navy = imagecolorallocate($image, 0x00, 0x00, 0x80); $darknavy = imagecolorallocate($image, 0x00, 0x00, 0x50); $red = imagecolorallocate($image, 0xFF, 0x00, 0x00); $darkred = imagecolorallocate($image, 0x90, 0x00, 0x00); // make the 3D effect for ($i = 60; $i > 50; $i--) { imagefilledarc($image, 50, $i, 100, 50, 0, 45, $darknavy, IMG_ARC_PIE); imagefilledarc($image, 50, $i, 100, 50, 45, 75 , $darkgray, IMG_ARC_PIE); imagefilledarc($image, 50, $i, 100, 50, 75, 360 , $darkred, IMG_ARC_PIE); } imagefilledarc($image, 50, 50, 100, 50, 0, 45, $navy, IMG_ARC_PIE); imagefilledarc($image, 50, 50, 100, 50, 45, 75 , $gray, IMG_ARC_PIE); imagefilledarc($image, 50, 50, 100, 50, 75, 360 , $red, IMG_ARC_PIE); // flush image header('Content-type: image/png'); imagepng($image); imagedestroy($image); ?> The above example will output something similar to:[NOT DISPLAYABLE MEDIA]Output of example : Creating a 3D looking pie NOTES
