Out of curiosity, do you know what caused the problem?

Those were probably damaged files that are now in /lost+found

If /root was detached or unlinked, then all of the files and directories
are now in /lost+found. If you can figure out where they were,
originally, then you can move them back into place. Since your filesystem
has suffered damage, I'd probably verify the integrity of the system like:
rpm -Va > /tmp/rpm.Va.out 2>&1
Look for any missing files. It's probably easier to reinstall the package
containing missing files than to figure out which file under /lost+found
is the right one.
