Hello, I seem to have a problem with bad sectors on my hard disk. I first found this out when i tried to recompile a new kernal. I got some errors that someone pointed out to me were hardware disk problems. Well i ran bad144 -s and sure enough there are bad sectors. The problem is that i can't seem to mark these sectrors out so their not used. The man page gives the options but i'm not clear exactly how to state what to mark out. For example i tried "bad144 -a wd0 623623" and if i type this over it says that i can't duplicate ann entry, so it knows i entered it, but if i try to compile a new kernal it still says that there are errors. Anyone have any sugestions? Thanks, Ron Porter -- [-Ron Porter-----------] [-Univ. Of Wisconsin---] [-Chemistry Dept.------] [-Madison, Wi 53706----] [-608-262-0190---------] [-porter@chem.wisc.edu-]
