mklost+found \- create a lost+found directory on a mounted Linux
8
second extended file system
15
directory in the current working directory on a Linux second extended
16
file system. There is normally a
18
directory in the root directory of each filesystem.
21
pre-allocates disk blocks to the
23
directory so that when
25
is being run to recover a filesystem, it does not need to allocate blocks in
26
the filesystem to store a large number of unlinked files. This ensures that
28
will not have to allocate data blocks in the filesystem during recovery.
