You will probably end up with some amount of files in lost&found dir, =20
those will be the files that fsck can't recognize from what dir are coming =
=20
and what are named, depending on what corruption You have there can always =
=20
be some files that You won't get back. As always, backups are a must have  =

on any fs.
