hi guys I got a dbt in the filesize limitation in kernel. y is tht there is no tree like structure in the inode so that the size of the inode remains const and it scales nicely for the smaller size as well as larger sized files. inode can just have the root of the tree so tht all the data pointers can be stored at one place n the inodes in one place. with this even the size of inode is maintained the same got any solutions??!! bye a kernel lover -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
