2008-02-13 Thread Haines Brown
I gather one can use the e2fsck with -c option to have it call /sbin/badblocks to report bad blocks on an unmounted partition. 1. Although the -c option causes fsck to use badblocks to identify any bad blocks present, does e2fsck then proceed to use this information to fix corruption as usual

e2fsck repeatedly "fixes" the same errors.
