You mean that when you run DskSlv on an apparently good disks you get the displayu of bad links? I think that this is normal. The way AmigaDos works when you create a new file or overwrite an existing one is that it grabs whatever blocks are marked as available. These blocks were possibly used previously for a file which doesn't exist anymore, but they may look to DskSlv as fragments of a file, and that's way you get those msgs. (I think this is right, but don't take my word for it: I'm extremely tired, and my mind is not functioning too welllllll) – Steve Zzzzzzzzzz….
