bin - Answer-typically used to store executable files (binary files). These will usually be
system files, as opposed to ones the user installed.
/.boot - Answer-holds the files that Linux uses during the boot up process. Better not
mess around in here unless you know what you are doing.
/.cdrom - Answer-will usually be mapped to this folder, so if you have a cdrom plugged
in you can usually access the files on it from here.
/.dev - Answer-will contain a folder and associated files for every hardware component
on the system. For example, there is /dev/cpu, and there are even entries for your hard
drives. Usually, you don't want to mess around in here.
/.etc - Answer-will usually contain configuration files for installed programs. If you need
to change a setting for a program you've installed (for example, a web server), then this
is the first place you'll want to look.
/.home - Answer-contains the user directories for every user on the system (that a user
can log into) with the exception of the root user. Our user is called 'user', so you can find
our home directory in /home/user.
/.lib - Answer-contains shared libraries and kernel modules. These are resources that
the system uses to function, usually best not to mess around in here either.
/.lost+found - Answer-If your hard drive has errors and files get lost, the 'orphaned' files
may get placed here.
/.media - Answer-he folders here can be used for mounting USB keys and floppy disks
(if anyone can still use one). To mount one is basically to load the file system that exists
on it so you can access the files.
/.mnt - Answer-The folders here can also be used for mounting external drives, USB
keys and floppy disks. It's up to you if you want to mount stuff here or in media.
/.opt - Answer-usually empty to start with; any user-installed programs can go here (if
you want). It stands for 'optional'.
/.proc - Answer-stands for 'process'. Every running program will have an entry in the
proc folder along with associated files.
/.root - Answer-the home folder for the root user. Remember, it isn't in /home.
