What is stored in a files inode on a Linux or unix system?
In native filesystems, the inode stores:the owner (userid and groupid)file typeaccess permissionsfile access times (datetime file modified, accessed; datetime inode modified)number of links to the filetable of disk addresses for the blocks used by the data of the filefile sizeDirectories are special files which contains a mapping linking names to an inode.In many filesystems, short data can be stored in the directory.
How do you edit an inode in Linux since everything in Linux is a file?
You don't edit inodes manually. They are managed by the file system driver.
What is an inode number in Linux?
An inode is a data structure on a traditional Unix-style file system such as UFS or ext3. An inode stores basic information about a regular file, directory, or other file system object. Each and every file under Linux (and UNIX) has following attributes: * File type (executable, block special etc) * Permissions (read, write etc) * Owner * Group * File Size * File access, change and modification time * File deletion time * Number of links (soft/hard) * Access Control List (ACLs) All the above information is stored in an inode. So, each file has an inode associated with it and an unique number called inode number. This number is used to look up an entry in the inode table.
What is inode structure?
Data structures that contain information about files in Unix file systems that are created when a file system is created. Each file has an inode and is identified by an inode number (i-number) in the file system where it resides. inodes provide important information on files such as user and group ownership, access mode (read, write, execute permissions) and type
In which file Uid and gid of a fil is stored?
This information is stored in the inode for the file.

What is incore inode?
icore inode is work before inode. icore inode is dynamic information about the file. incore inode tranlate information or data,in other words incore inode made before inode and any manipulation or information changed in the icore inode..... inode doesnot change file information & not perform any operation on file............
What is in inode and what information that is contain?
An inode is a data structure in a Unix-style file system that stores information about a file or directory, such as its permissions, ownership, size, and location on the disk. It also contains pointers to the actual data blocks of the file. Each file on the system is represented by an inode.
Explain with help of an an example how FAT different from inode?
explain with help of an example, how FAT is different from inode.
What is INODE?
In computing, an inode (index node) is a data structure found in many Unix file systems. Each inode stores all the information about a file system object (file, directory, device node, socket, pipe, etc.), except data content and file name.The reason for designating these as "i" nodes is unknown. When asked, Unix pioneer Dennis Ritchie replied:In truth, I don't know either. It was just a term that we started to use. "Index" is my best guess, because of the slightly unusual file system structure that stored the access information of files as a flat array on the disk, with all the hierarchical directory information living aside from this. Thus the i-number is an index in this array, the i-node is the selected element of the array. (The "i-" notation was used in the 1st edition manual; its hyphen was gradually dropped.)
What are stored in a file's inode?
Mostly depends on the filesystem, but generally it'll be the name of the file, the kind of file it is (Regular, directory, or link.), where the file is found physically, which can be multiple values. File's size, and I believe also file permissions.
How do you find the inode number in Unix?
ls -i
