hi all i want some help regarding disk block access. I want to simulate a file system designed. Now for tht can i use ext2/3 fs as the base and simulate the inode and data blcks designed by me. If at all i can use how do i access the data blks directly from C code. I can use a file to store the metadata but its max size is limited to 2 GB. thnx in advance bye -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
