Hello. I'm new on this list and I'm having a problem installing the FreeBSD 2.2.5. The problem is: when bad144 scans the HD for bad blocks, it says that there are too many bad blocks on the slice and that it can handle only 126 bad blocks per slice. I tried making three slices, but the last one always shows this problem. I tried the following HDs: Maxtor model 83240D4, 6696 Cyl, 15 Heads, 63 Sectors Seagate model ST3320A, 6253 Cyl, 16 Heads, 63 Sectors My questions are: 1. Does the bad144 have some kind of incompatibility with these HDs? 2. Is there any problem in continuing the install process, even with the bad144 warning? 3. Is there another program similar to bad144 that could handle more than 126 bad blocks per slice? I know the badsect but it doesn't does the full HD test. Thanks in advance, ------------------------- Josué Souza Jr. josue@nexos.com.br joshua@svn.com.br -------------------------
