Why does it have to be C?.

trees are classic examples where an OOP style works well. You really
need a language that supports runtime polymorphism in the language,
e.g Java, C++, C#

C is very poor for this use (its possible but ugly) which is I would
guess why there are few examples.

Well, I understood what you meant to say but... Since I am a student, mr.
professor decided that we should use plain C and that makes us feel like a
idiots because deadline is coming in around one week and nobody have written
that.

BTW There is some useful info about a real filesystem in "The C
programming Language", by Kerninham and Richie (C language desgners",
in chapter Unix system interface. Book should be in you uni library I
would guess..
