Is there anything in your /boot/lost+found?
/boot/lost+found/:
total 20

-bash.12[boot]:
But what is odd is the ls -l output for /boot/lost+found/ itself. Why is an empty directory taking up 12288 bytes? Other directories that are not empty are only taking up 1024 bytes.
Directories expand in size when a lot of directory entries exist.
They do not shrink when those entries are removed.
You can manually shrink it by rmdir the L&F directory then recreate it.
But do you really care about 11K bytes?
Something I did not know. Thank-you.
You're right, it's only 11K. Relative to the original problem, not significant.
That directory is also special. There might be consequences for recreating it. I don't know if it's accessed by name or inode.
That's the first I've ever heard of that! I learn something new once in a while.
Thank-you.
I'm definitely leaving it.
