Hi,
I am trying to write a simple filesystem to learn the basics of it.
I have decided on a simple layout for my filesystem where the first block will be the super block and will contain the version information etc. The second block will contain the list of inodes. Third block onwards will be data blocks. Each file can grow only up to a single block size. Thrid block will represent the first file, fourth block for the second file and so on. Directories will not be supported.
You can have a look at https://github.com/mkatiyar/testfs/blob/master/README which has a similar layout.
ah, nice :) I assumed that my layout should be patentably simple, rudimentary and unique. Seems like it is not the case :) Thanks. -- Sankar P http://psankar.blogspot.com
