Are these likely fixable short of replacing the disk? If so, how? Can an extended offline test force them to be rewritten and reallocated? Could this be some kind of false alarm on so young a disk? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
