Jane Trull's workstation had disk errors on reboot-- it said to run
fsck manually. I did, and fsck reported in Phase 1
	ra0a: hard error sn 7124
	CANNOT READ: BLK 7120

I booted b/3 and ran rqbads, which found 3 bad blocks:
	7125   77555   101387

I tried reinstalling software from tk50, which failed-- keyboard errors.
Please look at it-- it might be me, or it might be the disk. Or, maybe
we need to do something else about the three bad blocks before trying
to reinstall software.
