Hi,
I would like to know: if a hard disk died with a couple of bad
sectors, what is the best way to repair it??
I use badblocks, mkfs and fsck. Are there any other methods??
Also, when I mount this dead harddisk, the kernel sometimes will pop
up some messages like:
hda: irq request timeout. Error code 0x5f
hda: ide reset ok.
There are heaps of them. I cannot remember them all.
Is this hard disk still usable??
Shao.
