Subject: Q: Marking bad-blocks without reinstalling
Date: 6 Apr 1993 23:09:22 GMT

I suspect that I have gained some bad blocks on my (RLL) drives. Is there
any program that'll find bad blocks and mark them without having to
reinstall? Also, I notice that mkswap doesn't accept a list of bad blocks
when making a swap file. How do you tell it to skip bad blocks? (This
will all be solved for me soon when I buy and IDE drive! :-) )

Thanks,
Gary
