Nothing. Bad sectors are just that, sectors which are physically
damaged. There is practically no way of "fixing" this. 2MB of bad sectors is
quite a bit, I hope you don't have anything important on it. If it is stable
in it's amount of bad sectors then I wouldn't worry that much, but if the
number of sectors seems to be increasing I would say that drive is on it's
last legs. TTYL
