size of 1024. Basically the number of inodes in a block group is
blocksize*8 (1 inode block bitmap). If you want to read 8177th inode,
go to second blockgroup and read the group descriptor, find the block
number of inode table and read the first entry from there.
Hey manish,
I believe his question is how do we go to the next block group ?
Hope that helps.
