  Recently formatted a new disk & an error 243/CRC cropped up on one sector. 
Does OS9 de-allocate this sector somewhere in the directory so that no writes
take place, or is there a chance that there will be a bad save sometime later. 
If the latter is true I might as well chuck the whole disk. If not, then go
ahead and use it, right?    -ph-  (btw, I tried using a bulk tape eraser on it,
same problem;  other side of disk (side 2) is ok.)
