In MHDD:
Scanning the disk shows that over the entire disk, about 25 brown and red per screen, 15 green, and 4 or 5 S or x.

I take it that all this means that head or surface 0 is flaky, and there is a bad sector in the system tracks somewhere.

My question is, if I were to try to selfscan, what age do I set the drive to, and what is the proper command?

Do I use T># and enter the serial number, then run T>N2,,22 ? Or T>D1,,40 ?

Do I use T>w2 to write the CERT table when it finishes? Can the bad head be disabled if it cannot be recalibrated by the selfscan?

PM is OK.
