I had the same problem a week ago. If you use badblocks you have to 
remember to specify the blocksize in order to get a useable result.

If you use ext2 or ext3, a easier approach is probably to use e2fsck -c. 
This will run badblocks and mark the badblocks as bad automaticly. If 
you want you can use a couple of extra switches: e2fsck -cCfy (C = show 
progress, f = force check, y = answer 'yes' to all questions). All this 
is of course explained in "man e2fsck". Of course you should be aware 
that important data may be lost for ever by running this operation, so 
do a backup first.

Since i did not have a TSL rescue disk i used a Knoppix disc to do this 
from, however, you should probably do this from some kind of rescue 
disk, or at least with the disk in question unmounted.

Hope this can help. :)
