Documentation
Every operating system provides facility for the persistent storage and management of data. Those data are stored in a container called files. For this purpose the operating system provides a file system that allows users to organize, manipulate and access the files.
To provide an efficient and convenient access to the files, the operating system imposes one or more file systems to allow data to be stored. Linux uses Ext2 (Second Extended File System) file system (it also supports tens of other file systems like fat, ntfs e.t.c.). Recently the ext2 file system has journaling support and called Ext3 file system (though the most data structures are same).
