Few days ago on my host (Freebsd 2.2.6, 486dx 24Mg) on the hard disk (SAMSUNG WNR-31601A 1600MB) the bad sectors was detected. Fortunately, it happends on /home partition (last 500 Mb of drive), where not so much usefull stuff exists (it's a proxy and mail server). I make a $ bad144 -sv wd0 several times, and it seems to found all bad blocks. But the fsck hangs (and whole system too) after several questions like Cannot read block XXXX. CONTINUE y/n? and on the console printed some warnings about soft and hard reading errors. May be, i forgot something to do ? What's the usual way to fix the bad blocks problem ? Can i at least extract some data from this drive ? Alex Derevyanko. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
