All of the Linux filesystem drivers support all three FAT types, namely FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32.Where they differ is in the provision of support for long filenames, beyond the 8.3 filename structure of the original FAT filesystem format, and in the provision of Unix file semantics that do not exist as standard in the FAT filesystem format such as file permissions.

The extended file system , was released in April 1992 as the first file system using the VFS API and was included in Linux version 0.96c. [21] The ext file system solved the two major problems in the Minix file system (maximum partition size and filename length limitation to 14 characters), and allowed 2 gigabytes of data and filenames of up to ...
Nemo version 1.0.0 was released in July 2012 along with version 1.6 of Cinnamon, [3] [better source needed] reaching version 1.1.2 in November 2012. [4] It started as a fork of the GNOME file manager Nautilus v3.4 [5] [6] [7] [better source needed] after the developers of the operating system Linux Mint considered that "Nautilus 3.6 is a catastrophe".
ext3, or third extended filesystem, is a journaled file system that is commonly used with the Linux kernel.It used to be the default file system for many popular Linux distributions but generally has been supplanted by its successor version ext4. [3]
Modern Linux distributions include a /sys directory as a virtual filesystem (sysfs, comparable to /proc, which is a procfs), which stores and allows modification of the devices connected to the system, [20] whereas many traditional Unix-like operating systems use /sys as a symbolic link to the kernel source tree.
Squashfs was initially maintained as an out-of-tree Linux patch. The initial version 1.0 was released on 23 October 2002. [7] In 2009 Squashfs was merged into Linux mainline as part of Linux 2.6.29. [8] [9] In that process, the backward-compatibility code for older formats was removed.
Linux Mint 2.0 'Barbara' was the first version to use Ubuntu as its codebase and its GNOME interface. It had few users until the release of Linux Mint 3.0, 'Cassandra'. [14] [15] Linux Mint 2.0 was based on Ubuntu 6.10, [citation needed] using Ubuntu's package repositories and using it as a codebase. It then followed its own codebase, building ...
In computing, cp is a command in various Unix and Unix-like operating systems for copying files and directories.The command has three principal modes of operation, expressed by the types of arguments presented to the program for copying a file to another file, one or more files to a directory, or for copying entire directories to another directory.
