I read somewhere that the last two cylinders of a SunOS disk are used for bad block handling. Is this used at all for disks with built-in bad block relocation such as SCSI disks? If you know the answer to that one, maybe you might also know what all of the entries in /etc/format.dat and the disk label REALLY mean and what they're REALLY used for. Thanks muchly (will summarize if there is sufficient interest) --Bjoren Davis -- Bjoren Davis Tel 617 577-1288 Aurora Technologies, Inc. uunet!auratek!bkdavis Cambridge, Massachusetts bkdavis@auratek.com
