MKLOST+FOUND(8) UNIX Programmer's Manual MKLOST+FOUND(8) NAME mklost+found - make a lost+found directory for fsck SYNOPSIS /usr/sbin/mklost+found DESCRIPTION A directory lost+found is created in the current directory and a number of empty files are created therein and then removed so that there will be empty slots for fsck(8). This command is obsolete because fsck(8) automatically creates and extends the lost+found directory as needed. SEE ALSO fsck(8), mkfs(8) Printed 11/26/99 November 17, 1996 1
