badblocks returns zero errors, still not able to install ubuntu on my hard drive
Hi,
I am trying to format and repartition my hard disk using ubuntu 12.04, but to no avail. Read various posts on multiple forums and tried following with no success : Error : libparted : 2.3 ====================== Input/output error during write on /dev/sda Error fsyncing/closing /dev/sda: Input/output error Badblocks returns zero errors. dd ran successfully with absolutely no errors. sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M Disk utility SMART status says : Disk is Healthy. Not sure, of what's the issue and what can i do to reuse my disk. P.S : I have backed up all the data and am only concerned about reusing the disk somehow. Thanks. |
Exactly how did you use a command for bad blocks?
Get and use the OEM's diag for that disk and run the long test. Run memtest for a day too. In an odd way still could be other parts or cd/dvd. |
