Bug#5256: bug in badblocks(8) or in kernel
Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.02-1
On a swap file system made on a partition 23265 blocks long, I did:
badblocks /dev/hdc2 23265
which is incorrect, because that is the number of blocks of the
partition, while the swap file ssytem is shorter. Anyway, the kernel
is not happy with that and gives an error. The exact type of error is
variable, up to a panic. I can give more info if needed.
