Hi.

I just wondered about missing /lost+found, and whether it couldn't be
handled as a "non-failure" issue...

Like when cheking an fs and not creating it:
/dev/sdb1 was not cleanly unmounted, check forced.
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
/lost+found not found.  Create<y>? no
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information

/dev/sdb1: ********** WARNING: Filesystem still has errors **********

that fsck, doesn't call that an error?


Moreover, and it seems this might be actually a bug... when an filesystem
was not cleanly unmounted and a check is forced, as in the example above,
then even if no further failure was found but the /lost+found is not
created, then the fs will still be marked as unclean, and a full check will
be enforced when running fsck on it again.


Cheers,
Chris.
