Hey um , i have a small prob, in indexed allocation , in the index block why there are 3 (-1)s ? In FAT table (-1) means the last block, but in indexed allocation whats the meaning of (-1)? I dont understand why there are 3 (-1)s in index block, and in the last part of video ,you replaced those 3 (-1)s with some block numbers, so that means (-1) is like free blocks associated to a file so that the file can expand? Am i correct?, i mean according to given example the file "jeep" was given 3 extra free blocks(mentioned as -1 each) so that the file can expand to those 3 blocks if needed? Am i corect? Pls reply i have an exam tomorrow🙂
Thanks for going thru this, I was dreading to read walls of boring text to try and understand how this all works

Excellent explanation! The best one in RUclips. The exercises are very clear. Thank you!
In a way the coronavirus has been really good for higher education. If not for covid, this video would not have been made publicly available.
Hi casey, may I ask, actually on part of the video 11:56, how it gets -1 on list? a little bit unclear about that. can you explain on that?
