File System Images for Downloading.

File System Images for downloading and testing your code with.

The following page is a list of links to hard drive/floppy drive/CDROM images of file systems that you can use to test your File System code on.

These are images of partitions that people like you have sent here for others to use to test their FS code on. If you have an image of a floppy, hard drive, CDROM, USB stick, or other form of media and would like to help your fellow coders, please see below for instructions.

Please note that any image listed here, though not intentionally, may contain things that may be inappropriate to children, virii, or even contain illegal transfered data such as an installation of Windows. Though I try to view each image, I can not verify any legal aspects or other items on each image. Please use at your own risk.

If you have an image of a File System that you would like listed here, please find a free file hosting server, some are listed here,
upload your file to that server, then send the link to me at fys [pigtail] fysnet [dot] net.

Even if you see that a specific File System is already listed, please submit yours also. The more to test with the better.

Please include a contact email in the form of something similar to: name [pigtail] server [dot] com
Or you can simply state that you would rather not have your email listed.

Please do not send a link to an image with an Operating System that is not freely available.
i.e.: Don't send a link to an image with Windows installed on it.

A little note, please keep the data on the image clean. I will not list your image here if I find something inappropriate. Thanks for keeping it clean.
