The engineering manager has decreed that we must discard the FAT and describe the disk contents in terms of extents. Use the FAT and file entries as they appear in Table 5.6.

a. List the clusters in files F1 and F2 using extents.

b. List the clusters in files F3 and F4 using extents.

c. List all free clusters appearing in Table 5.6 using extents.

You should use “About” and “Info” commands, and look at folder or directory listings to collect this information. Depending on the file system, you may be able to retrieve a creation date, reference date, and modification date.
