Long term problem.

Why can't I restore a dumped fs which has had bad sectors saved off with
the badsect program? For example on one disk, file systems /var and / 
restore OK. But /usr (wherethe BAD folder is) won't have it!

The error with 'restore tf' tells me it can't read the fs , skipping
blocks etc.

Is this a known problem with badsect?
