title: How to find disk block that contains a file in FAT
body: <p>I am wondering how you can find a file in a FAT file system.</p>
  
  <p>While in Linux there is a root block that tells me where the root is and I can just iterate through directory i-nodes and their blockpointers to find other other inodes from directory entries, there is no such thing in a FAT table. More than that, the idea of having iterating throughout all a linked list, I find it very confusing.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone explain how we can find the disk blocks that contain the file in FAT?</p>
