It provides an indefinitely deep hierarchy of directories, where each directory may contain other directories and files, or just files. The structure is a pure tree - that is, loops are not allowed. There is sufficient redundancy in the mechanism to allow you to patch together most, if not all, of the contents of a disk after a serious hardware error, for example. To patch the contents of a disk, you use the DISKED command. For further details on the syntax of DISKED, see section 1.2, "DISKED - The Disk Editor," later in this chapter. Before you can patch together the contents a disk, you must understand the layout. The subsections below describe the layout of disk pages. 1.1.1 Root Block The root of the tree is the Root Block, which is at a fixed place on the disk. The root is like any other directory, except that it has no parent, and its secondary type is different. AmigaDOS stores the name of the disk volume in the name field of the root block. Each filing system block contains a checksum, where the sum (ignoring overflow) of all the words in the block is zero.
