When I dump to tape I get the following: DUMP: read error from /dev/rsd0s1e: Input/output error: [block 790880]: count=8192 DUMP: read error from /dev/rsd0s1e: Input/output error: [sector 790892]: count=512 and in the messages log, these sort of messages: > sd0(ahc1:0:0): MEDIUM ERROR info:11318c asc:11,0 Unrecovered read error, FAILURE Since it's a SCSI drive, I don't know whether to scan for bad blocks (despite what the BDS handbook says)or if I should try something else. Any suggestions? The drive is a Micropolis 2210 Thanks, -- Ian Moore :-) Hamilton Secondary College To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
