Background: The old laptop has a disk which is known to have as many as 100 bad blocks, but has continued to function fine. While running copydist, the install ran into the following errors then hung: ------------------------------ fossil: diskWriteRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x00000000: date ... part=superblock 0: i/o error fossil: diskWriteRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x00000041: date ... part=label block 65: i/o error and it hung at 65% installed. I'll try a different partition. Gots to go... EBo --
