I had a corrupted filesystem that would not boot.

I ran this command to fix the broken filesystem.

e2fsck -b 32768 /dev/sda5 -y

Is there a safer way to fix a bad filesystem ?

I rebooted and it mounted, and all my data was in lost+found with a
number attached.

ls | wc -l
540 # yikes

Could someone explain why this happens ?

Thanks
