4.1BSD and bad sectoring

[guy at rlgvax.UUCP]

We've had a similar problem with DEC RM05's and a DEC controller; we have
several bad blocks which get BSE errors, but when we used "bad144" to put
their block numbers in the bad block table it didn't seem to do the
mapping.  I've heard the vanilla "hp" driver doesn't handle bad blocks right,
and that there is a driver from Purdue which does.
