You can't. Modern drives remap bad sectors all by themselves. If the system is seeing a bad sector, it means the drive has run out of the sectors it has set aside for such remapping, and your drive is rapidly approaching death. Buy a new drive, and move your system to it. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
