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

NAME

mklost+found - make a lost+found directory for the fsck command

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/mklost+found

DESCRIPTION

The mklost+found command creates a directory named lost+found

in the current directory. It

also creates several empty ﬁles which are then removed to provide empty slots for the

fsck command

(see fsck(1M)).

For an HFS ﬁle system, the

mklost+found command is not normally needed since the mkfs command

automatically creates the

lost+found directory when a new ﬁle system is created (see mkfs(1M)).
