Filesystem/de

Ein Dateisystem ist ein Mittel zur Organisation von Daten von denen man erwartet, dass sie nach dem Beenden eines Programms beibehalten werden. Dies wird durch die Bereitstellung von Verfahren sowohl zum Speichern, Laden und Aktualisieren von Daten erreicht, als auch durch das Managen des verfügbaren Platzes auf dem Gerät, das diese enthält.

Dateisysteme für Festplatten

 * ext4 - The default, GPL licensed journaling filesystem for many Linux distributions.
 * FAT - The File Allocation Table (FAT) filesystem. Originally created for use with Microsoft Windows.
 * JFS - A GPL licensed, 64-bit journaling filesystem developed by IBM.
 * Btrfs - A copy-on-write B-tree filesystem with advanced features (an entirely open source licensed ZFS alternative).
 * NTFS - Microsoft Windows' New Technology Filesystem (Windows' default filesystem).
 * Aufs - Another union filesystem.
 * OverlayFS - A Linux kernel supported union-like filesystem.
 * ReiserFS - Version 3 of the ReiserFS filesystem.
 * Reiser4 - Version 4 of ReiserFS filesystem.
 * SquashFS - A compressed, read-only file system for Linux
 * XFS - A GPL licensed, 64-bit journaling filesystem created by Silicon Graphics.
 * ZFS - A CDDL (non-GPL compatible) licensed, copy-on-write filesystem created by Sun Microsystems.

Virtuelle Dateisysteme

 * debugfs - Used for debugging purposes; primarily Linux kernel development.
 * procfs - Used to output and change of system and process information.
 * securityfs - Used by the TPM bios character driver and IMA, an integrity provider.
 * sysfs - Used to output information about and to configure devices and drivers.
 * tmpfs - Used to store files in memory (RAM).
 * devtmpfs - requires devtmpfs (Maintain a devtmpfs filesystem to mount at /dev) in the kernel.

Netzwerkdateisysteme

 * Ceph - A distributed object store and filesystem designed to provide excellent performance, reliability and scalability.
 * NFS - A common Linux network file system protocol.
 * SSHFS - Implements FUSE to mount filesystems in user space.
 * TahoeLAFS - A least authority file system.

FUSE-based filesystems

 * CurlFtpFS - File system for accessing ftp hosts based on FUSE


 * MTPfs - A FUSE filesystem providing access to MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) devices


 * smbnetfs - A FUSE filesystem for SMB shares.

Mounting
Filesystems can be mounted in several ways:


 * - The command used to manually mount filesystems. Requires administrative privileges or entries in.
 * fstab - Contains descriptive information about the filesystems the system can mount.
 * Removable media - Mount on file demand.
 * AutoFS - Automatic mount on file access.
