there is a program to do this in -current.. hmm lemme see hmmm I guess it's wrong.. what you need to do is: 1/ try wrote nulls to the block if that succeeds all's well.. fsck the drive 2/ use the scsi 'mode page editor' to set the remapping options ON (man 8 scsi) 3/ try write nulls to the block.. theoretically this hsould succeed, and the block should be automatically remapped.. > > > My system disk is dying and I need to remove an inode -- all I got is > the disk block number which fsck reports . > > BTW: Why can't fsck remove or mark bad scsi blocks? > > Tnks, > Amancio >
