I just want to say that I always transfered files to my usb drive and then formated the usb drive using the patition software called Gnome, and i did this a lot(I think that's what it is called) but im new to this linux so give me a break here. Anyways I used the partition editor that Ubuntu 8.04 has (after you download it from synaptick manager). I used it and formated my usb drive a lot. Well right before I installed Ubuntu 9.10 I transfered a bunch of files from my hard drive to the usb. And I think I forgot to unmount the USB drive before I Installed Ubuntu 9.10 from scratch, but I'm not sure. (I burned ubuntu 9.10.iso to a cd as an image file) so I know i installed the os right. After I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and booted the os for the first time I got the same error saying i have bad sectors on my hard drive. So I am almost convinced that this is a bug. Just letting everyone out there know. I have a Windows XP Cd that I might install just to see if my hard drive is bad or not but i am sick of getting viruses on windows since i download so many files. Please help
