That's right, reiserfs can not handle badblocks. ext273 can. There is a
way to do it manually, but I don't like it (fsck will remove the hack).
However, possibly your HD firmware can move badbloks elsewere, transparent
to any OS. This is enabled with hdparm, and the log/status can be seen
with smartctl. Relocation of bad sectors happens when trying to write to a
bad sector (but not on reading).
