I think this 8,4 quantum is old enough to not contain so called "spare 
sectors". So 1 bad sector means there is really only 1 bad
sector. Anyway i still cant understand, why UFS cant cope with bad blocks, 
but 1000 year old FAT, or the newer NTFS
can easyli get through the  problem.

The other problem: how should i mount "/" read-only, because i always get 
"busy" error-message?
