I reinstalled my **UBUNTU 12.04** after facing some crashing issues with my software. I have separate partitions for `/` and `/home`.

Output of `df -h`:

```
root@sougata-SATELLITE-L750:/home# df -h
Filesystem   Size   Used   Avail   Use%   Mounted on
/dev/sda1    29G    3.8G   23G     15%    /
udev         2.0G   4.0K   2.0G    1%     /dev
tmpfs        402M   860K   401M    1%     /run
none         5.0M   0      5.0M    0%     /run/lock
none         2.0G   22M    2.0G    2%     /run/shm
/dev/sda6    558G   182G   348G    35%    /home

```

It shows 182 GB used in the `/home` folder but I can't find those files in `/home` anywhere.

Output of `ls -l /home`:

```
root@sougata-SATELLITE-L750:/home# ls -l /home
total 96
drwx------ 2 sougata sougata 16384 Oct 10 2012 lost+found

drwxr-xr-x 54 sougata sougata 73728 Aug 9 08:31 sougatapc

```

Are those files saved inside the `lost+found` folder ? 

If so then how do I recover them & view them now?
