It took over seven and a half hours for badblocks to run. The result was 13 bad blocks. That was scanning all of the hard-drive (sda).
I'll look up how large a blockis; but with so many failed, would fsck -vcck /dev/sda4 re-arrange enough to get my linux system working in the short-term until I can find a way to replace either the hard-drive, or the laptop itself? The partition is about 7 gb total, with a 40-50 percent used as reported by df. I've gotten used to doing certain tasks in linux. Thank you:-) |
