1. A method for a directory-less file system within a dispersed storage network (DSN), the method is executable by one or more processing modules of one or more computing devices and comprises: sending a plurality of sets of encoded data slices to DSN memory for storage therein in accordance with a plurality of sets of DSN data addresses, wherein data was dispersed storage error encoded to produce the plurality of sets of encoded data slices, wherein the data has a data name, wherein the plurality of sets of DSN data addresses is generated based on a data object number associated with the data and data storage information, and wherein the data name includes file system information; generating retrieval data that is based on the data object number and the data storage information; dispersed storage error encoding the retrieval data to produce a set of encoded retrieval data slices; generating a set of DSN retrieval data addresses based on the data name and on retrieval data storage information; and sending the set of encoded retrieval data slices to the DSN memory for storage therein in accordance with the set of DSN retrieval data addresses.
