[SLE] Damaged Hard Disk with Linux

Hi list,

I have got a damaged hard disk. It has only one sector which is bad. I have been using it with Windows for 3 months since the problem came out. Now I would like to turn the machine into a linux machine. There is a way to make linux ignore that sector, just like scandisk does for windows? There is a way to do that on BSD? (I know this is not a BSD list, but if you know the answer....).

First do a man on e2fsck: e2fsck -c /dev/hda
