- Is there a limit on the number of blocks that can me labeled bad by bad144?
-
- I have 12 cylinders of 26 sectors (312 blocks) bad on my RLL disk. When I run
- bad144 -a -c wd0 block#, it keeps saying that the bad sector table contains duplicates.
- However, bad144 never prints out a list containing the blocks that I entered :-(.
-
- Any light on the subject would be greatly appreciated.
-
- Thanks,
-
