Subject: Re: folder lost+found missing?
But my question is: do I need to create it and do something special? It was there when I first setup this fc3 system. Also, why does the system need it?
Thanks a lot!

No, you do not need to create it. It will be created by fsck when checking your filesystem and when it finds allocated blocks of data which are not registered in your filesystems superblock.
This can happen when your system experiences an unclean shutdown e.g. by a hard reset of the system or when the system 'hangs' due to incorrect programcode.
