It's limited by number of inodes allocated to that particular partition. It's 
usually one inode per 4096 bytes of partition space. You can change this figure 
while formatting the partition.

Same as above. In particular linux file systems like ext2 does not have idiotic 
limit of FAT where you can create only certain number of files in FAT root dir. 
but unlimited number of them in subdirectories.. That's FAT limitation. It has 
fixed number of entries in root directory..
