Linux Filesystem. A Tour.

The folder structure in Linux follows the FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard). FHS: /bin - base command binaries /boot - bootloader files /dev - devices /etc - PC configuration /home - home folders /lib - libraries and kernel modules /proc - information about the running system /media - mounting media (/mnt) /opt - additional software /root - admin home folder /sbin - main system configuration programs (firewall, iptables) /srv - data for system services /tmp - temporary files /usr - user binaries /var - variable files (frequently changing)
