Good day everyone.
I found a box with old floppy disks dating back to 90's and wanted to copy them to my pc.
I have a set of windows 3.1 setup disks and one of them has bad sectors (disk 2). I switched to linux debian jessie because windows10 and scandisk does not work with this fdd.
So i discovered the badblocks command that will display the sectors that are bad.
So now how can i recover the data ? So far i failed to find a way to do so.
Ahhh dos 6 had this awesome scandisk command that would not only find bad sectors but also would relocate the data and mark the sector !
Thank you in advance.
