I don't have an answer for the first problem, but I have one for the second.
Use MacTools (from Copy II mac) to verify all the individual files.  The one
that doesn't verify contains the bad block.

I just tried it with copy II mac 7.0 and it was a pain.  I had to click OK
after every file.  I hope that you can come up with a better way.
