Project Scope

The scope of this project is limited to the development of a basic file system. This project supports an initial data space present in the inode table to about 7 KB. ( 7 Blocks each referencing 1KB of data).This space can be extended to a desired value subject to space and implementation constraints.The directory entry table contains the file name which occupies a space of 14 bytes.The theoretical value of the number of inodes available is 2^16 (2 Bytes equivalent to 16 bits).Thus, the number of different files per file system can be extended upto a theoretical maximum of 64,000.
