Boot File System
open-in-new
<p>The Boot File System (named BFS on Linux, but BFS also refers to the <a href="/facts/Be_File_System/fQ5uUJj9">Be File System</a>) was used on <a href="/facts/UnixWare/L0q19BlL">UnixWare</a> to store files necessary to its boot process. </p><p>It does not support directories, and only allows contiguous allocation for files, to make it simpler to be used by the boot loader. </p>
