File Systems: Difference between revisions

There are many different kinds of filesystems around, from the well-known to the more obscure ones. The most unfortunate thing about filesystems is that every hobbyist OS programmer thinks that the filesystem they design is the ultimate technology, when in reality it's usually just a bad copy of DOS FAT with a change here and there, perhaps because it is one of the easiest to implement. The world doesn't need another crapFAT filesystem driver. Investigate all the possibilites before you decide you roll your own.
