I have one machine running Fedora Core 4 that has developed bad blocks. 
Just one spot on the drive. badblocks find four blocks, but It doesn't seem to 
be mark them. I've booting in single user mode, and was able to run e2fsck 
with the options to do the test on the /boot with no problem being that it is an 
ext2 partition, but it doesn't recognize the /dev/hda2 volume with the LVM 
partition. I looked at the lvm commands, and did not see one that would deal 
with bad blocks. Ran spinrite on the drive as well, and it just finds the one 
block as uncorrectible error.

Is there a process or command to do this.
