It's worth learning both how FAT32 works and how a simple inode-based filesystem works. They're quite different styles, and inode-based systems support things like hardlinks.
- voltagex_ 7y agoI got to the point where I could read the header / metadata from a FAT32 image, but I couldn't find the right offset to read a file. Is there a definitive document anywhere? I remember I was jumping between at least 3 documents with varying levels of completeness.
