File system¶
Now you know a few really basic, Linux commands. Before we can learn anything else, we should look into how files and directories are structured inside a Linux system.
FHS¶
$ ls /
bin boot dev etc home lib lib64 lost+found mc media mnt opt output proc root run sbin srv sys tmp usr var
/ is the root directory of your file system. It’s under this directory, that all the other files and directories reside. There’s a Filesystem Hierarchy Standard(FHS), which talks about these different directories, and what kinds of files are located in which directory.
