Its highly unlikely that the 4 people on different hardware that have tested
this all have disks with bad sectors.
I've just finished doing a full battery of tests across:
FreeBSD: 4.11-RELEASE, 5.4-STABLE, 6.0-CURRENT, Suse 9.1
I'll post the results soon but suffice to say the results for FreeBSD don't
look good.
Steve
