In regards to your answer to this persons question, if I have a drive that I 
know has some bad blocks, first, if I map the drive to skip these blocks, how 
reliable is said drive, and second, how would I go about mapping the bad 
blocks with FreeBSD (which utility)?  Thanks in advance for any help you 
can give.
