e2fsck is obviously not relevant (swap isn't e2fs), so whatever you do
with it, you can shove the results somewhere I won't mention.

1. Finding out if there are bad blocks in the bad blocks list
Hi
I'm trying to find out whether there are any bad blocks in the ext2fs
bad block list. I think there might be, because I had a whole lot of
ext2fs error messages popping up during a compile, and when I removed
the directory I was working with and ran e2fsck -cf /dev/hdc6, it told
me the filesystem was modified, even though none of the regular checks
had failed (I'd previously run e2fsck -f /dev/hdc6, so all the duplicate
blocks and unattached inodes and stuff had been sorted out). I think the
drive might still be under warranty, so if there are bad blocks I'll
take it back.
TIA
Bruce
