mklost+found(8)


NAME

  mklost+found - Makes a lost+found directory for fsck


SYNOPSIS

  mklost+found


DESCRIPTION

  The mklost+found command creates a lost+found directory in the current
  directory.  mklost+found also creates (and then removes) a number of empty
  files so that there will be empty slots for fsck. The fsck command
  reconnects any orphaned files and directories by placing them in the
  lost+found directory with an assigned inode number.  mklost+found is not
  normally needed since newfs automatically creates the lost+found directory
  when a new file system is created.


FILES

  /usr/sbin/mklost+found
      Specifies the command path
