I would suggest you boot single-user and run

	mdmfs -s 1m md /tmp
	recoverdisk -w /tmp/_.wl /dev/ad4 /dev/ad4

That will  find out how many bad sectors you have and try to recover
the contents of them if possible, leave it running as long as you
care for.

If you interrupt it, the /tmp/_.wl file will contain a list of areas
not yet successfully read/written.
