- I've recently run into my first disk errors on my cube's scsi disk and am
- looking for ways to map them to a bad block area on the drive and out of
- the file system. I've looked at disk(8) but this does not seem to offer a
- means to do what I wish unless the verify option would work--since this is
- my only disk, I'd rather not learn about this by experimentation.
-
- Any other utilities out there to help me out here? NeXT's sysadmin manual
- and the various NeXT answers that I have do not seem to point out anything.
