This site doesnt' exist
>Environment:

	FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #0: Sun Jun 25 21:22:16 CST 2000     root@cartier.cirx.org:/usr/local/src/sys/compile/CARTIER 

>Description:

	1) There's no block device in 5.0-C.
	2) But our sbin/badsect still look for block device.
	3) So why not fix the bug instead of buying a new hard drive ? :->
	4) Since on -current the only bug fingured out is about style(9),
	   I think it's ok to send-pr.

>How-To-Repeat:

	1) Use any FreeBSD version that has no block device.
	2) Prepare a slice that doesn't store important data.
	3) Mkdir BAD within the slice root.
	4) badsect BAD [any sector number within this slice]

	*) If it's hard to figure out which sector is within the slice
	   test wanted, then prepare a hard drive that really has bad
	   sector. After some accessing, the bad sector number will be
	   reported on the console.

>Fix:

	Apply patch.
