Lost+found
I need to try and sort 125gb of lost+found files and directories that look like from testing the files are good in some areas. Does anyone know of a script using strings, file, find, etc. to help sort something like this........can't find it on google.
thks

Unfortunately it's not really scriptable as the inode entries are lost. Your only option is to discern from the content what the file is and where it should be linked into the FS tree.
If you know where a bunch should go and need a way to automate this process (ie you can describe exactly what the process should be) then we can script _that_, otherwise it's going to be a long, slow, process sorry  I take it restoring from backup isn't an option?
