Trying to install (NetBSD-0.9) on ST506 disk, and it doesn't recognize the tracks that are marked bad. I can use the old Advanced Diagnostics IBM diskette I have, and the tracks are really marked, but the install blithely tries to write on them. The resulting hard error finishes the install much quicker than I had planned. :-) --- Steve ###
