Hi

I'm having some problems with my FreeBSD 5.3 server, running on an AMD 
using IDE disks. The disk is having some problems:
# dmesg
ad0: FAILURE - READ_DMA timed out
ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=18986207
ad0: FAILURE - READ_DMA timed out
ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=18986335
...cut...
ad0: FAILURE - READ_DMA timed out
ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=18973151

I'm suspecting some bad blocks, but how do i test for them, and mark 
them bad?
I'm extremely new in FreeBSD so be gentle ;o)

Sincerely yours
