Hi all,
 
Is there a way in freebsd to check for bad blocks. Linux can do this via a
-c flag to mkfs; but newfs for FreeBSD does not seem to have this
functionality.

The issue is that I have a IDE disk that I suspect to be bad )but there
have been no ATA resets or logged errors so far). I either need to do a bad
block check while creating a filesystem or some other diagnostic tool that
can do a low level check on the disk.

Thanks,
-ansh
