I have a 500 GB SATA Hard Disk- this has partitions as follows:
12 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB, 35 GB, 55 GB - Linux (all ext3)
200 GB (FAT32)
160 GB (NTFS)
This HD is used for installing both Windows XP & openSUSE 11.1 (x86).
I suspect one or more partition (200 GB FAT & the 12 GB ext3) may have
developed bad blocks (sectors). Is there any program that can be used
off a Live CD to check for bad blocks for Linux (ext3) and Windows
File Systems (when booting Windows, Checkdisk begins checking the 200
GB partition and then hangs & re-boot is necessary to login to
Windows).
