I have the following Configuration:

Cx486S 33Mhz-VL

210Mb Conner HDD (IDE)

FreeBSD 1.1.5

Now my problem:
I've got the FreeBSD 1.1 on my HDD together with MS-D*S. (110Mb D*S, 
110Mb FreeBSD) Now I want the full 210Mb for FreeBSD. I installed
FreeBSD 1.1.5 using the floppy-disks. But after installation,
the Kernel sometimes reports errors on the Harddisk. So, the HDD
has some bad sectors. Not the Problem... But neither 'fsck' nor
'bad144' nor 'badsect' could help. Has anyone an idea, how to
makes the bad secs unwritable an unreadable???

(The Messages are very, very nerving... :-((( )
Please HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S.: Any idea can be posted here or per email to 
      maverick@pksbln.in-berlin.de. Thanx...

If you have a procedure with 10 parameters, you probably missed some.
