43utility makes a file to contain a bad sector.
44Normally, bad sectors
44are made inaccessible by the standard formatter, which provides
45a forwarding table for bad sectors to the driver.
46If a driver supports the bad blocking standard it is much preferable to
47use that method to isolate bad blocks, since the bad block forwarding
48makes the pack appear perfect, and such packs can then be copied with
49.Xr dd 1 .
50The technique used by this program is also less general than
51bad block forwarding, as
