Err, why? What's the relationship between badblocks and fsck? There
isn't a particularly strong one, other than badblocks and fsck are in
the same package....
OK, *if* you are using the ext2 or ext3 filesystem, then fsck calls
e2fsck, and if you use the -c option which is documented in the e2fsck
man page, it will call badblocks... but that's pretty indirect.
