Well, The person I got the lappy from dropped it. I believe the bad sectors can just be marked as bad. But I'm having trouble running a fsck...
Code:
untu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fsck -pcfv /dev/sda
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
And when I run e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sda I get the same error.
