[comp.unix.ultrix] fsck <=> disk problem

randy@gtuplab.UUCP (Randal Abler) (05/26/88)

	I have a VAXstation II running Ultrix, and am having trouble
	dealing with Bad Blocks on a third party drive.  My question
	for the net is:
	When fsck reports a bad block, say  BLK 243125 for example,
	how does that map into the logical block numbers for the drive?
	Do I just add the partition table offset for that partition on the
	drive?   Given the correct logical block number, I should be able
	to map out that block.  

	Vital Statistics:
	Drive Controller    Dilog DQ686  (ESDI controller)
	Disk Drive	    Maxtor 4380E (320MB, 5.25" ESDI Disk)
