it is only a small script. Because setting filesystem translators is
similar to mounting partitions, you can easily grasp the concept this way.
Make a file system image with <code>dd if=/dev/zero of=dummy.fs bs=1024k

yet, no new <code>ext2fs</code> process is running (verify with <code>ps

You will have noticed that the partition only starts at the 63rd sector. The beginning of the disk contains the MBR which is used for booting. We must then remount the disk making sure that this part is skipped before formating it. We know that a sector uses 512 bytes so we should begin at 63 \* 512 = 32256 :
