I need nonexistant filesystems....


...Or in other words, I need to emulate a filesystem.

I'm trying to get some coding expirience by creating some stuff. The problem is that I need to emulate many Windows and UNIX filesystems. Of course I could make the directories and files in it, but it would take a awful lot of disk space.

Any ideas???

You could use images... This way you would mount them as a harddrive, then just delete the image file when you're done...
