NAME
mklost+found - create a lost+found directory on a mounted Linux
second extended file system
SYNOPSIS
mklost+found
DESCRIPTION
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.
OPTIONS
There are none.
