-          <para>FreeBSD 3.X and earlier supported
-            <command>bad144</command>, which automatically remapped
-            bad blocks.  FreeBSD 4.X and later do not support this, as
-            modern IDE drives include this functionality.  See <link
-            linkend="install-bad-blocks">this question</link> for
-            more information.</para>
-
-          <para>To fix this after an upgrade, you need to physically
-            place the drive in a working system and use
-            &man.disklabel.8; as discussed in the following
-            questions.</para>

-          <para>How do I tell if a drive has <command>bad144</command>
-            information on it before I try to upgrade to FreeBSD 4.0
-            and it fails?</para>

-
-        <answer>
-          <para>Use &man.disklabel.8; for this.  <command>disklabel -r
-            <replaceable>drive device</replaceable></command> will
-            give you the contents of your disk label.  Look for a
-            <literal>flags</literal> field.  If you see
-            <literal>flags: badsect</literal>, this drive is using
-            bad144.  For example, the following drive has
-            <command>bad144</command> enabled.:</para>

-          <para>How do I remove <command>bad144</command> from my
-            pre-4.X system so I can upgrade safely?</para>
-        </question>
-
-        <answer>
-          <para>Use <command>disklabel -e -rwd0 </command> to edit the
-            disklabel in place.  Just remove the word
-            <literal>badsect</literal> from the flags field, save, and
-            exit.  The bad144 file will still take up some space on
-            your drive, but the disk itself will be usable.</para>

-          <para>We still recommend you purchase a new disk if you have
