Bad sector on the HDD disk.

Hi all,
Tried to set up WiFi, but broke my computer.

I run OpenBox. All is well. I run gmrun. Also doing well. I run lowriter, or gnome-terminal, or geany, or other software - computer reboot.

I cleaned for him. When I set up WiFi, I used ndisgen. But all that I have done I have recovered.

Why auto reboot my computer?

I have logfiles in /var/log - but which file to look at?
I can not understand what happened. :(
 
May be defective in gmrun? Try to reinstall!

*Add after few minutes.
Tried to remove gmrun.
Code:
cd / usr/ports/x11/gmrun
make & & make deinstall clean

....
...
panic: ufs_dirbad: / var: bad dir ino 189 444 at offset 512: mangled entry

# 0 0xc0a4b137 at kdb_backtrace +0 x47

**Add after few minutes.
I think that my computer auto restarted due to bad sectors on the HDD.

When it rebooted the first time - I restored the system from Single User.
Code:
# fsck -y /
# fsck -y /var
# fsck -y /tmp
# fsck -y /usr
# fsck -y /usr/home
# reboot now
Hard drive I had formatted so
# newfs -j MY-HARD-SLICE
I have a magazine.

How do I fix this?
 
In live USB FreeBSD I installed port sysutils/dd_rescue.
Run from Live USB FreeBSD and run next script.
Code:
# mkdir -p /root/dd_rescue_report/
# cd /root/dd_rescue_report/
# vim dd_rescue.sh

#!/bin/sh

fullname=`realpath $0`
whereami=`dirname $fullname`
cd $whereami

dd_rescue -v -l ./err-f9root.log -o ./bad-f9root.log /dev/gpt/f9root /dev/null
dd_rescue -v -l ./err-f9var.log -o ./bad-f9var.log /dev/gpt/f9var /dev/null
dd_rescue -v -l ./err-f9usr.log -o ./bad-f9root.log /dev/gpt/f9usr /dev/null

exit 0
:wq!

# sh dd_rescue.sh
A few minutes later I find out if bad sectors.
 
Given that you've had multiple hard drive failures, the failure point might not be the drives themselves. Could be power supply, for example.

fsck(8) can be simplified:
# fsck -y -t ufs

No it's different HDD drives. The first external hard drivewas - he had his unit power supply.
And this is my laptop. And its hard drive. I'm shocked. I want to swear.

Maybe it's me - loser. x(
 
Result of dd_rescue.
There are no bad-*. log files. So, no bad sectors on these slices.

Then what's the problem?
 
No, the shorter form of fsck(8) just checks all filesystems of the type given with -t. Just a little easier.

sysutils/smartmontools can help show disk errors. Remapped bad blocks would not show in dd_rescue.

It could be a driver or firmware problem. Could be a power problem, like with unstable AC power. Even on a laptop, a UPS can be useful.

Good article. I did everything as it says (several times). But sorry, it did not help me.

Thanks for the clarification. I installed the sysutils/smartmontools, and will use it. An interesting program.

I checked the disk for bad sectors. I used HDD Regenerator all this night.
Code:
Result: Bad block 0. Posted 0.

I'm confused. :(

Now I want to just delete the partitions. Perform a complete formatting. And re-install the system.

But I do not know how to do a Full Formating. I opened a new one topic. Excuse me.
