instead of starting a new project, why not answer a few questions:
what are all the key functions traversed when creating a new file?
new directory? new symlink?
conceptually it should involved functions that:
a. allocate a new inode.
b. allocate some blocks of space.
c. updating the blo

Hi Michi,
Thanks for pointing this out. Of course I was describing an RTOS in general,
but it's good to know now that one can pre-empt user space code w/o
pre-empting kernel code.
I thought that - given the general question - an initial general RTOS vs.
"superloop" programming rundown would clarif
While booting the latest kernel updates for FC10, kernel version:
2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10.i686, I was terribly amazed at the Solar
Flares effect. Short of ploughing through the 67M (FC11 kernel
source) of kernel source, can anyone tell me specifically where in the
kernel this can be implemented?

I'm not to familiar with the x86 architecture but for an ARM architecture
you can just look at the link register, R14. This will give you the address
of the function that called you. It is used to store where the code goes to
upon 'return' and therefore will contain the address you want. I would be

Segments consists of various sectors.
A block buffer contains sectors.
Each disk I/O consists of segments.

hi,
i heard that it is possible to have HIGHMEM4G and PAE options
combined. Is that really possible?
I am on 2.6.28.2, and choose HIGHMEM4G. But there is no place to

Hello everyone,
I had an existing fedora 10 OS installed and the base FS on it was ext3.
I needed to have a Fedora 10 system with base FS as ext2 ( for /)
I wanted this because I wanted to change the code of ext3 FS.
So I freed some space on the HDD (aroung 25 GB) and using custom
