Hello there!

I've just gotten hold of a 30 M hard disk and now here is the
trouble. (The type or whatsoever is irrelevant.)

Background: After formatting, the fysical bad sector marking begins
but the program can't find any bad one's even though there
are some fabricial faults on it.


Q: How do I mark them, or more specificaly,
how is the list of bad sectors built. I know where
to find it but not how to use/modify it.

Please email (or why not post?)
any replies to: pa@hexagon.se

AdvTHANKSance!
