But if an empty directory is read, an error message will be output by current kernels. You can use the following commands to reproduce it. - mkfs.ext3 -b $(( 64 * 1024 )) /dev/sdc1 - mount /dev/sda1 /mnt - cd /mnt/lost+found - ll - tail /var/log/messages EXT3-fs error (device sdc1): ext3_readdir: bad entry in \ directory #11: rec_len is smaller than minimal - offset=0, \ inode=0, rec_len=0, name_len=0 Treat a rec_len of 0 as 65536, as e2fsprogs does.
