Hi all,
I have a raid1 as root-partition (md0), and I found in /lost+found 32.715 items, about 1,5 GB big. cat /proc/mdtst seems to give all normal:
backupserver:/lost+found # cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md1 : active raid1 sdb2[0] sda2[1] 1052160 blocks [2/2] [UU]
md0 : active raid1 sdb3[1] sda3[0] 389616320 blocks [2/2] [UU]
unused devices: <none>
Is so much in lost+found normal, or is something going on??
Nothing should ever be in lost+found under normal circumstances. Items are placed there by fsck, when it discovers files that are incorrectly unlinked, or some other problem So you've had some sort of file system problem, you've run fsck, and it has placed a lot of data there. Go through it, and see if there's anything you want to rescue, and delete the rest
