Guide to Linux Filesystem Mastery
Overview The terminology used to discuss Linux filesystem concepts is a bit confusing for newcomers. The terms filesystem and file system are used interchangeably in the Linux documentation to refer to several different but related concepts. Linux veterans understand, from context, the sense in which these terms are used. Newcomers, however, have an understandably harder time discerning the context. The overriding objective of this paper is to provide enough background to help to discern the context of this terminology for oneself. The paper focuses on the Linux disk partitions and file management system features in version 2.4 of the Linux kernel.
