Professor instructions

Implement a file system interface using binary files

• The file system reserves the first part of the file to store:

  • a linked list of free blocks
  • linked lists of file blocks
  • a single global directory

• Blocks are of two types

  • data blocks: "random" information
  • directory blocks: contain a sequence of structs of type "directory_entry", containing the blocks where the files in that folder start and if they are directory themselves
