[nflug] fixing disk errors

[Joe]

I just deleted my dapper partition /dev/sda2 successfully.

When I use gparted to try to grow /dev/sda4 (gutsy) to use all that
space, it fails on a read error.

I went back into gparted and created an ext3 partition on /dev/sda2.

I rebooted and ran fsck -CVa /dev/sda2 and it says it's clean - no errors.

It looks like I need to map out some bad sectors on my drive in that
partition.

What should I do next - leaving my other partitions intact?

Thanks.

Joe
