Roderick W. Smith's Introduction to Linux filesystems and files
description:Everything you do with Linux involves files in one way or another. You launch programs from files, read program configurations in files, store data in files, deliver files to clients via servers, and so on. Therefore, the tools Linux provides for manipulating files are extremely important to overall system performance. At the core, these tools make up a filesystem -- a set of data structures that allow Linux to locate and manipulate files. Several Linux native filesystems exist, the most important of these being the Second Extended File System (ext2fs), the Third Extended File System (ext3fs), the Reiser File System (ReiserFS), the Journaled File System (JFS), and XFS
