Hi all,
Is there a good tutorial about how to write a simple file system? I know FUSE is easier. But I want to write a real filesystem based
on disk.
Any simple code example is ok.

Thanks,

never write one, but usually whenever I need to check something about filesystem, I check ramfs code.

I too would like to read tutorial like this.

Ramfs is not disk based.

Reading code of extX or other is a little pain... I was searching for article like this on lwn but there are only tutorials about nondisk fs.
