+------------------+ Scan for Bad Blocks? +-------------------+ | | | The system can scan the entire partition for un-readable | | disk blocks and will mark any such bad blocks it finds so | | that they will not be used. This requires that every block | | be read, and thus could take a long time, but may save you | | trouble later. Modern disk controllers generally do not | | need this, since they can identify and deal with bad blocks | | automatically, so the default is not to perform this check. | | | | Run a bad-block scan on '/dev/sdb3'? | | | | <Yes> <No> | +-------------------------------------------------------------+ If I choose <No>, it runs the scan. If I choose <Yes>, it doesn't. Richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
