ABSTRACT:
A device and method for recovering data in a file system. The method includes the steps of performing a given function that effects a change in a control structure of the file system and concurrently saving data relevant to the function in a state as data for a recovery, and recovering the interrupted function by using the data saved for a recovery, to prevent the loss of file data and maintain the consistency of the file system. The device includes a flash memory to store the control structure.
