  • and what is the difference between the logfiles held in /tmp and /var ??

  • how would we differentiate between a /dev and /proc?

  • Great Explanation.

  • Only a person who understands things really well, can explain it in a simple language like you. You are not just repeating memorised terms and phrases. Loved it!!! Awesome work mate!!!

  • Really good stuff.

  • Schmidtbag:

    If you look closely I wrote that more than one year ago (actually almost 2 years ago), so I know that by now.

    Thanks anyways, it can be helpful for others.

  • in some distros, if you never log into root, there won't be files in there. its just like any other account - if you don't log into it, theres no reason for something to show up in there

  • Thanks lot for such nice presentation

  • If you're using Ubuntu, you don't usually use 'su' to run commands. You can either use 'sudo' in front of the command or use 'sudo su' to switch to root, then use any command that isn't rm -rf / or something like that.

  • OpenOffice will store itself into /opt if you have that set as a separate partition.
