Hi,

My SCSI hard disk on my system is have some media problem.  I would
like to mark out the bad sector on the hard disk.  Does anyone 
know how to handle this problem or any utility that I can use ?
I have tried running diskdefect and fsck, they both can't solve my 
problem (in fact, diskdefect crashed).

Currently part of my file system is not accessible and the reboot
process will halt half way.  Please help to advise appropriate action.

Your help is very much appreciated.  Thanks.
