Line 17: == Implementation Details == The FAT file system views the storage media as a flat array of clusters. If the physical media does not address ~~it's~~its data as a flat list of sectors (really old hard disks and floppy disks) then the cluster numbers will need to be translated before being sent to the disk. The storage media is organized into three basic areas. * The boot record Line 386: Notice that each character is two bytes long and that the name is null terminated. The two FF's at the end are the padding at the end of the long file name. This is also what the other FF's in the long file name entry are. The final important thing to notice about the long file name entry is it's attribute byte at offset 11. the 0x0F attribute allows us to verify that this is indeed a long file name entry. == Programming Guide ==
