The disk was tested with UniSofts Sys5 verify and came out ok, and was in use for a long time with Sys5 with no major problems, so I know it's in good shape. However, badblk in V7 reports continuous badblocks starting at about 66000+ (of 87000), so many that the program eventually dumps core (so I can't map them out). Other V7 programs (fsck) also report bad blocks out at the high end, so I can't get it installed. Has anyone out there had any experience with this system? (I apologize for the incoherency, if anyone understands and can help, let me know by e-mail!)
