"E2fsck also supports ext2 filesystems countaining a journal, which are also sometimes known as ext3 filesystems, by first applying the journal to the filesystem before continuing with normal e2fsck processing."
I don't know if ReiserFS is different and requires a different tool.

Oops, I'm (apparently) using Journalised FS and that seems only to be for ext2. Any ideas on checking sectors and marking bad ones bad on a harddrive which uses JFS?

You have to be root for that command. It is not in the path for normal users (it is in /sbin/e2fsck).

Or bad disk.I've had two disks breaking up recently, behaviour is always _very_ strange. You could check partitions with
# e2fschk -f -c /dev/hda?
-f forces the check -c performs bad block scan (I've never done this, don't know how long it takes) Substitute hda? with the name of your partitions.
You need to be root and the partitions must not be mounted. The easiest way to do that is to boot from the mandrake CD1 and type F1-rescue.
