The Root Directory

The figure below shows the two highest levels of a typical Unix directory tree. Each directory, including the root, may contain logically organised files as well as more directories.

These standard first level directories contain files and sub-directories which are used by the user, in most cases transparently, and are as follows.

/binExecutable command files
/devDevice files
/etcSystem files used for configuration
/libProgram and system libraries
/tmpTemporary files (cleaned up by the system)
/usrUser-oriented files for applications
/homeWhere the user's home directories are stored
/varLong-term user and system-oriented storage
