Finding an LBA after a disk error

After much revision I finally have a tool that does a pretty good job of identifying the usage of an LBA. Its not perfect, but its normally only used with a disk with a bad sector. It no longer needs the complete source distribution but can be built from the normal libraries. It has been tested on FreeBSD 5.3 and 6.0. One of the libraries it uses was introduced in 5.1 so its not likely to work on anything earlier. It works on ufs1 and ufs2 formats and there is even a man page now. It could be mnade into a port, but I am out of time right now. A quick look at the documents for creating ports shows that it will take quite a bit of time to figure out that part. Contact me off-list if you would like to get it.
