This project will begin with partition detection using MBR and GPT +partition tables. After partitions can be detected, filesystems will be checked +for known filesystem types. A FAT32 driver will be launched for any detected +FAT32 filesystem. This driver will support both read and write functionality, +using RedoxFS as an example implementation to compare against. If the project +is finished early, work could begin on other filesystem types. ### Expected Outcome -... +The expected outcome of this project is for Redox OS to automatically launch a +FAT32 driver for all detected FAT32 filesystems, allowing for those filesystems +to be read and modified. ### Skills Preferred -... +Experience with filesystems is preferred, but not required. The student is +expected to learn about the current Redox OS filesystem and to research FAT32 +during the project. ### Mentors -- GitLab
