.SH NAME
|
|
mklost+found \- create a lost+found directory on a mounted Linux
|
|
second extended file system
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B mklost+found
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B mklost+found
|
|
is used to create a
|
|
.I lost+found
|
|
directory in the current working directory on a Linux second extended
|
|
file system. There is normally a
|
|
.I lost+found
|
|
directory in the root directory of each file system.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B mklost+found
|
|
pre-allocates disk blocks to the
|
|
.I lost+found
|
|
directory so that when
|
|
.BR e2fsck (8)
|
|
is being run to recover a file system, it does not need to allocate blocks in
|
|
the file system to store a large number of unlinked files. This ensures that
|
|
.B e2fsck
|
|
will not have to allocate data blocks in the file system during recovery.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
There are none.
