Calling all gurus, Here's a question that I cannot seem to find a suitably technical answer on the Internet.
I need to know the actual procedure the file system uses to delete a file. That is, what files are modified (Inode table, SuperBlock, Group Descriptors etc) and which fields within the files are modified. Can any gurus out there help me or know where I can find this information. Plenty of web sites provide a description of the Ext2 fs but not what actually happens when you delete a file. Even the Ext2fs web site doesn't seem to have sufficient information. Thanks in advance. -- Kerry
