ABSTRACT:
A file management system for use with a computer system is disclosed. The file management system comprises a real filesystem for accessing files stored on a storage medium and a custom filesystem. The custom filesystem comprises a hierarchical arrangement of links to a subset of files of the real filesystem. In operation, the custom filesystem has processing priority over the real filesystem. As such, the custom filesystem processes requests relating to files of the file subset prior to processing, if any, of the requests by the real filesystem.
