To compile:
------------
install linux kernel sources and run make from the checkedout directory.

To test:
---------

One-time-activity:

linux-okb0:/home/psankar/src/simplefs > dd bs=1M count=100 if=/dev/zero of=image
linux-okb0:/home/psankar/src/simplefs > mkdir mount

Repeat everytime after making changes to the source:

linux-okb0:/home/psankar/src/simplefs > make
linux-okb0:/home/psankar/src/simplefs > su - ; # switch to root user if not already, or use sudo
linux-okb0:/home/psankar/src/simplefs # dmesg
linux-okb0:/home/psankar/src/simplefs # insmod simplefs.ko
