	Wade this is what you should see:

karl at karl-hardy:~$ sudo badblocks -v /dev/sda2
[sudo] password for karl:
Checking blocks 0 to 7823654
Checking for bad blocks (read-only test): done

Pass completed, 0 bad blocks found.
karl at karl-hardy:~$

	As I said before you have a bad hard drive. Better change it!
