Hey all,
Does any utility exist for the Apple II (ProDOS) that can validate/
verify a disk and mark bad blocks as bad? I have some floppies
with a bad block or two and I want to have them marked like that so
I can still use the rest of the disk. PC utilities (Norton, etc-- even
MSDOS to some extent) have done this kind of thing for a long time,
but GS/OS and CopyIIPlus don't seem to-- they can flag it but not
fix it.
Is there anything out there?
Thanks
Ben
