I need an urgent advice. We got a PC with two SCSI hard disks, second one beeing mounted as /var. For about two days we see an error on a screen that tells us smth. like that: sd1(ahc0:2:0): MEDIUM ERROR info?:323c58 asc:11,0 Unrecovered read error , retries:2 I understand that our hard disk fails to read data.... Well, the question is how to cope with it? For DOS one uses Norton Disk Doctor or a Scandisk to scan bad sectors and mark bad clusters I man'ned fsck, newfs, bad144, badsect but did not get a clue how to manage it... And english is not my native language... HELP! Great thanks in advance! Bye. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
