Checking and Fixing Disk Errors and Badblocks


Linuxpoison wrote a howto on fixing diskerror and badblocks. The process includes identifying the badblocks and saving them on a file and then feeding the file to fsck to check and fix any issues.

To identify bad block: badblocks /dev/hda1 > test

Thans use fsck to fix issues: fsck -t ext3 -l test /dev/hda1
