[ale] USB->IDE problems

[Christopher Fowler]

I got it working with a newer drive.  Maybe be an issue with the older
drive.  I'm seeing errors like this.


 I/O error: dev 08:03, sector 99356148

These only poped up when I executed a mke2fs.  I know the drive is good
because I've used it.  I pulled it out of my workstation.  I would like
to run some tests to see if I can safely ignore these messages.  Does
someone know a program or way to do this?  Maybe with /sbin/hdparm ?
