Xaireto,

idou ti brika se ena biblio gia to lost+found.

"...When fsck encounters a file that has lost
its link to its filename, fsck asks you wether
you want to reconnect it. If you choose to reconnect 
it and fix the problem, the file is put in a directory
named lost+found, and it is given its inode number
as a name. In order for fsck to restore files in this
way, there should be a lost+found directory in
the root directory of each filesystem. (...) Each
of the lost+found directory must be slotted. To
put slots in a directory, add many files to the 
directory ( for example, 500 ) and then remove them.
This procedure creates unused entries in the
directory that fsck can use to store the inode 
numbers for the files that have lost their links. For
ext2fs filesystems, an appropriately slotted
lost+found directory is created when you first make
the filesystem with mkfs. ..."
