Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.39-1
Severity: normal


An attempt to test one block:

    % badblocks /dev/hdb1 1 1 ; echo $?
    badblocks: invalid blocks range: 1-1
    1

'man badblocks' seems clear enough:

        last-block is the last block to be checked; if it is not specified, the
        last block on the device is used as a default.   start-block  is an
        optional  parameter  specifying the starting block number for the test,
        which allows the testing to start in the middle of the disk. 

...according to that, a range  of '1 1' should work.  Looks like
a fencepost error, in which case this might work:

    % badblocks -vs /dev/hdb1 2 1
    Checking blocks 1 to 2
    Checking for bad blocks (read-only test): done
    Pass completed, 0 bad blocks found.

Vague... did it scan one block or two?  If it scanned one block,
then the the message "Checking blocks 1 to 2" is inaccurate.

Suggested fixes:

    Either:
    1) Make 'badblocks' do what the manual says.  A range of '1 1' would search
       one block.

    Or else:
    2) Have the manual correctly describe what 'badblocks' now does, 
       and fix the program's "Checking blocks x to y" output message.

Hope this helps...
