- does mkefs still make a /.badblocks with the -c option? I was
- reinstalling and tried it and I didnt get a .badblocks I got made
- errors as the scan was done however, so I know there is some bad spots.
- the command I used was:
- mkefs -c /dev/hdb1 xxxxxx
-
- I forget the number of blocks, anyway its an RLL drive with known bad
- areas so whats the deal.... is it ok or not?
