fsck tells us we have bad blocks on a file system, but apparently makes no
attempt to mask out these blocks.  Does anyone know how we can do this?
It used to be the case that doing a low-level format would give us a table
of bad blocks for mkfs to ignore, but scsiformat doesn't seem to do this
-- and it completes in around a second.

Regards.
