It seems that Mark Murray said:
> # mkdir lost+found

inode #3  used to be  --  and still is  in several  Unixes -- reserved  for
lost+found  directories, populated   at _newfs_  fime,   not by fsck.  That
enable fsck  to save recovered  inodes  even if  the  fs is full (directory
entries are pre-created too). 

Why don't we use the same  method as anyone ? Is  there a _good_ reason not
to do it at newfs time ?
