Hi,

is there any way to handle badblocks on a lvm1 lv in an dm lvm2 environment. EVMS seem to be able to reallovate those, but i dont wanna switch.

my kernel is 2.4.25, no patches on a debian system using IDE drives.

You don't want to throw away the flaky disk(s) ? ;)

A disk should be sorted out IMO in case it starts showing bad blocks because that means that it ran out of internal space to remap (presumably it is decently actual it will have), which is very bad.
