NAME

       mbadblocks  - scan an MSDOS floppy and mark its unused bad
       blocks as bad.

SYNOPSIS

       mbadblocks drive:

DESCRIPTION

       Mbadblocks scans an  MSDOS  floppy  for  bad  blocks.  All
       unused  bad  blocks are marked as such in the FAT. This is
       intended to be  used  right  after  mformat.   It  is  not
       intended to salvage bad disks.

SEE ALSO

       mtools(1)

BUGS

       This  should  (but  doesn't  :-( ) also try to salvage bad
       blocks which are in use by reading  them  repeatedly,  and
       then mark them bad.
