Unlikely, at a total of 6 remapped blocks?

It's under warranty, so that would cost real money. I'm not sure whether
they'd replace it in this state:

  SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED

  General SMART Values:
  Self-test execution status:      ( 112) The previous self-test completed having
                                          the read element of the test failed.

  SMART Self-test log structure revision number 1
  Num  Test_Description    Status                  Remaining  LifeTime(hours)  
LBA_of_first_error
  # 1  Extended offline    Completed: read failure       00%      2716         
0x0067fdcc
  # 2  Short offline       Completed without error       00%      2715         -

The extended test consistently fails, the rest is ok (still).

No, the errors started occuring before I upgraded. The current
smartmontools is better: it sends me email about it.

I don't see how - the only argument taking a block number is -1, and
that's "print the block". Combined with -p and/or -S it spits something,
but it's not a filename. I was hoping for something like 
find-me-the-filename --lba 0x0067fdcc /dev/hda
(and there are several partitions on it)

Thanks,

Volker

Btw IMHO running smartmontools is a must, if you aren't already start
sooner than later.
