I didn't see that patch the first time from ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/misc-patches/ because I assumed that the interesting patches were linked from the downloads page. Atleast a hint that there is a badblocks patch available on the ftp site on the downloads page, so that the reader can go grab this patch. Hopefully this will extend my mileage until drive replacement :) Though I think I'll back a few more things up before attempting a kernel compile. -- --------------------------------------------------- It's the question, http://witme.sourceforge.net If you think education is expensive, try ignorance. -- Derek Bok, president of Harvard
