after another diskbuild and loading ver. 3 alpha 11 + newest hijack, i did these commands (i used the script mark made, not the "screwed up" one i did post here):

./smartctl -S on /dev/hda
./smartctl -t long /dev/hda
./smartctl -S on /dev/hdc
./smartctl -t long /dev/hdc
./fix_bad_sectors.sh /dev/hda
./fix_bad_sectors.sh /dev/hdc

the output is still the same:

empeg:/tmp# ./fix_bad_sectors.sh /dev/hda
empeg:/tmp# ./fix_bad_sectors.sh /dev/hdc
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 21168128: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 118681552: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 101619881: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 101618857: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 101617328: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 101517771: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 101517771: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 17631400: not bad.
/dev/hdc: Examining LBA 101458623: not bad.
empeg:/tmp#

i will give it another go with the new hdparm, but i dont know how i do delete the one i have on the player...

but doing hdparm --read-sector ******** /dev/hdc replacing ****** with the lba numbers listed only returns that reading those sectors is succeeded
