Hi
I have 2 machines with such messages and hdd's just running fine for 2+
years. If ext2/3 fs is not marking such sectors as "bad, i dont use it
anymore" then its about time that such things are going to be developed
right? I do not want to replace a HDD if just 1 sector is marked bad at
smartd. The smartd message is only showing up after a reboot overhere.
Danny.

Hmmm... or does it mean I need to completely
reformat or fsck this disk throughly to ensure
that it is really going bad? I am using FC4
so I wonder if there is another reason...
I will have to chek this out.

It means you have 14 bad sectors on your /dev/hdb hard drive. It also
means it is time to buy another drive and copy your data over to it.
