how to write a fat16 file system!?
i cannt find any fat16 documentations!!!!who can help me?
i think there must have some source code about fat16 in the linux kernel source code, but i cannt find it either!! who can tell me which one is? thanx!!! |
????
Fat16 is the filesystem used by MS DOS. Linux uses ext2, ext3, reiserfs, etc. The fat16 source code isn't likely to be in your distro. Why do you need it? |
Linux is also support fat16, isnt it??
i use redhat 9.0, and the kernel version is 2.4.20-8. i need to write some data which i read from a FIFO to a flash mem, in fact i just wanna find out the source code supporting the fat16, can u help me? thanx!!! |
FAT16, etc is just the way the hard drive is formatted. Data can be copied to it without affecting it. Linux supports FAT16 in that it can read/write it - it can't create it.
Microsoft standardised FAT16 and would be (understatement alert!) extremely unlikely to release the code. |
I think u havent understanded what i said. My mother language is not English, and i cannt explain my meaning exactly!
In fact i just need to write some original data(with out any file system) to a piece of memery, and thest data must be recognized by Linux or Windows! And I want to use fat16 format. Is there any source code in the kernel supporting the fat16 file system??? thanx! |
