Subject: Bad blocks
I am trying to install Minix on a 286 with a hard drive that has a
large number of bad sectors on it. When I ran the Minix readall, as suggested in the manual, it only found one of the sectors. This is rather disturbing, as when I finished the installation, cpp worked fine for the first 10 test programs, and then was reported to not be an executable file. So, is there a program which will do a complete test of my hard drive and mark sectors bad, or do I need to write my own? Gebran -- You must Sign in before you can post messages.
