Hi,

 How XFS reacts while trying to read from damaged area
 (i.e. bad blocks on hard drive)? One of my disks
 unfortunately got bad sectors and XFS reaction was:
 "Kernel Panic" (as far as i know it's normal reaction
 - the journalling fs idea does _not_ handle with
 damaged block devices) .... What would be the best
 way to got the data (not on the damaged area) back?

- Krzysztof

PS. 
that "panic" is reproducable on particular file...
