UX file system,FSF

[Alice_4]

what is the structure of the file system?
did the file system has any connection with the file storage & addressing?

i'm having problems in solving this question:

File size = 13825 bytes
Block size = 124 bytes
Type of addressing = single indirect addressing

how can i calculate the FSF?
FSF: File Specification Format

i would like to know the FSF,
the fragment size, the file specification format, and the block policy.

thank you...

Alice,

You keep asking the same question with new threads, which isn't necessary: Please use this thread:

Alice,

You keep asking to solve the problem of:

********************************
File size = 13825 bytes
Block size = 124 bytes
Type of addressing = single indirect addressing

how can i calculate the FSF?

What really needs to be ANSWERED by YOU, is where did this QUESTION come from??

WHAT are you trying to accomplish? Are you trying to write a program to READ/Manipulate filesystems on disks?

Hi Alice,

could it be that your study books are a little bit, hmm, *old* by today's standards?
And are talking about IBM mainframes and hierarchical databases?
Tell us the whole problem, as there is *NO* FSF for UN*X systems, at least I have not found one in over 20 years of programming and administering UN*X systems...
And if you calculate your numbers, well 13825 can NEVER EVER be a multiple of 124 byte sized "blocks" :-((
