Yes, but that is a "multi-mode" RW.
I need to think how to do a complete recovery.
A preferred solution in my mind would all for resetting the request cue
and retry in the next sector and continue on; however, the need to update
the badblock table that is written/created or needs to be similar to the
"badblocks" call from "mke2fs". Do you agree?
