I recently noticed that the 4.0 install floppies do not have the bad block scan option. I've tried on 3 different systems here, it didn't showup in the list, nor did the (B) key respond with anything. All three systems were different sizes/processors/controllers, but all 3 systems contained only drives over 20gig, that may be a problem, but I will check in the morning on a smaller system. Is there a reason this was removed? Is there a way I can force it in the newfs options from the Options screen? Thanks in advance, --Chad Ziccardi PS: please CC a copy to me =) System 1) AMD Athalon (650), ASUS K7M mobo, Maxtor (running ATA/66) System 2) P 133, Promise ATA66 controller(#1), WD 205AA (running ATA/33) #1: I couldn't remember the model, will look in the morning it was a 30.2 or 30.7. #2: I know the promise card isn't on the HCL lists, but it works, the mobo card gives me "atacpi0: Busmastering DMA not supported" then resouce not ready and reboots To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
