Ug, the hard drive on my Linux box seems to be having some major problems, Bad sectors and all. So what I am trying to do, is since it only is happening on the /home partion, and that partion is 100Gb large and I only have 30Gb of data on it, and the problem seems to be at the beginning of the partion, I backed up the data, then did the /home partion to partion out the bad block area from the file system. When I finish formating the new /home partion, I will restore my files. But till then my Linux box is a bit down :-(. The partion will be will finish formating soon (I run the badblock check on it as I format) then I will get the data to restore, it should be finished by the time I get back from my churches Super Bowl party.
