or sysutils/diskcheckd. It uses a 64KB blocksize, falling back to 512 -- to identify the bad LBA(s) -- after getting a failure when reading a large block, and IME it runs something like 10x faster than dd with bs=64k. It would be advisable to check syslog configuration before using diskcheckd, since that is how it reports and there is reason to suspect that the as-shipped syslog.conf may discard at least some of diskcheckd's messages. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
