... or is my disk really dying?
Hi -
with -current I now get a hard disk error - output appended.
Is there (besides the formatting problems) perhaps just a bug
in error handling causing this? -- The "(obsolete)" makes it
look so.
If this is really a hard sector failure: Can I assume that
the block is already remapped internally by the drive?
"dkctl wd0 badsector list" shows nothing.
If the drive didn't remap it: What is the recommended procedure
to avoid touching that block in the future? (Strange that
"dkctl" doesn't let me add bad blocks manually.)
The read doesn't appear to be behind the disk -- I'l append the
probe messages too for reference.
best regards
Matthias
