Wouldn't bad block forwarding by the disk take care of this? Generally you want the read of a bad block to return an error but if you write the block the disk will automatically remap this block to one of the spare blocks. What exactly are you trying to do by mapping a bad block to a file? Nevertheless may be fsdb will help? You still need to map LBA to the slice/partition offset. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
