File Manager

[Nobody III]

Thanks. I'm almost ready to get working on making Genode run on my hard
drive, but I still have a few questions:
1. How do I load executables and libraries from a filesystem?

2. How do I access a specific filesystem on a hard drive?

3. Can Genode automatically detect a filesystem's type?
