Hello, I have a disk which seems to have developed some faults or bad sectors. fsck yields the following: > ** /dev/ccd0 > ** Last Mounted on /export > ** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes > > CANNOT READ BLK: 50795296 > CONTINUE? yes > > THE FOLLOWING DISK SECTORS COULD NOT BE READ: 50795409, etc. there's about 4 sectors/blocks that can't be read. Now I know I should go and buy a new disk, but I just need this one to keep limping along for a month or so more. So my question is, how can I get the OS/BIOS to recognize the disk sectors as bad, and get over it? Here's the details Sun Ultra 10, FreeBSD sol.jonze.com 5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #0: Fri Nov 5 19:30:40 UTC 2004 root@bobbi.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC sparc64 ad1: 38182MB <MAXTOR 4K040H2/A08.1500> [77578/16/63] at ata3-master WDMA2 And yes, I know I shouldn't be running non-Sun disks in a Sun box, but, well, it works most of the time :-) Regards, Richard -- Richard Jones http://www.jonze.com
