Hello fellow avid linux users, My name is Chi, and I am Scott's linux "apprentice", so please expect some of my posts to be rather rudimentary - thanks & I'd appreciate any of your valuable advice and tutelage as a linux newbie.
I recently learned about devices, types, and mounting them. What physically happens when a device is "mounted"? Does it just get a directory location, or is it somehow "activated?" Also, what role does a filesystem play in this? Thanks for your help, ~Chi Zeng --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Central West End Linux Users Group (via Google Groups) Main page: http://www.cwelug.org To post: [email protected] To subscribe: [email protected] To unsubscribe: [email protected] More options: http://groups.google.com/group/cwelug -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
