| Apr 23, 2017 at 10:31 | comment | added | ilkkachu | On Unixy systems with separate inodes (and hard links), the directory entry points to an inode, which tells it's a directory instead of a regular file. The inode then points to the data blocks, which contain more directory entries, which point to inodes... | |
| Apr 23, 2017 at 10:22 | comment | added | Irvin Lim | Thanks for this, it really helped me out. So am I right to say that, the inode for a directory (e.g. /home/user) points to more directory entries (the filenames + inode numbers for all files under /home/user)? | |
