Error 2 is for missing file/directory.
Try to create /tmp/lost-found and start it again.

Hi,

yes, that's right.
Also make a 'touch /tmp/lost+found/.fsadm'
and a 'chmod 600 /tmp/lost+found/.fsadm'

I guess u dont read links send to u.
everything is mentioned in good depth in the link i send

mkdir /tmp/lost+found

Then you can try the fsadm command. If it still fails then use touch to create the .fsadm file

touch /tmp/lost+found/.fsadm

Hi,

You MUST have the lost+found dir on each filesystem mount point.
If it's not there so you can create it like

mkdir /tmp/lost+found

Set ownership & perms if necessary

Then create a .fsadm file using touch

touch /tmp/lost+found/.fsadm

now try fsadm command it should run.

@Suraj - nice cut and paste - does it make sense to repeat older answers without new notes?

Hi:

The *correct* way to make the 'lost+found' directory is to use the command:

# mklost+found

See the corresponging manpages for why.
