MKLOST+FOUND(8) System Manager's Manual MKLOST+FOUND(8)
mklost+found - create a lost+found directory on a mounted Linux sec‐
ond extended file system
mklost+found
mklost+found is used to create a lost+found directory in the current
working directory on a Linux second extended file system. There is
normally a lost+found directory in the root directory of each
filesystem.
mklost+found pre-allocates disk blocks to the lost+found directory so
that when e2fsck(8) is being run to recover a filesystem, it does not
need to allocate blocks in the filesystem to store a large number of
unlinked files. This ensures that e2fsck will not have to allocate
data blocks in the filesystem during recovery.
There are none.
mklost+found has been written by Remy Card <Remy.Card@linux.org>. It
is currently being maintained by Theodore Ts'o <tytso@alum.mit.edu>.
There are none :-)
mklost+found is part of the e2fsprogs package and is available from
http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
