mklost+found(1M)                                 mklost+found(1M)



     NAME
          mklost+found - make a lost+found directory for fsck

     SYNOPSIS
          mklost+found

     DESCRIPTION
          A directory lost+found is created in the current directory
          and a number of empty files are created therein and then re-
          moved so that there will be empty slots for fsck(1M).  This
          command should be run immediately after first mounting and
          changing directory to a newly created file system.  For
          small file systems, it is sufficient (and much faster) to
          simply make a lost+found directory.  Up to 30 files can be
          recovered in it.

     EXAMPLE
             mklost+found

          in the current directory, creates a directory with empty
          slots named lost+found.

     FILES
          /bin/mklost+found

     SEE ALSO
          fsck(1M), mkfs(1M).

     BUGS
          Should be done automatically by mkfs.
