So as far as I can tell my laptop has a dead sector (it appears to be a
hardware error). I can't mount the partition in Knoppix. This is the
error I get:
hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: dma_intr: error=0x4 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=52436302,
high=3, low=2104654, sector=52436302
So obviously I have a problem with sector 52436302. I'd like to be able
to restore some of my stuff (it's not too critical) before I send the
drive off for RMA.
Anyone know how to dd my drive avoiding just that sector?
Thanks,
Adam
