+\subsection{Contents}
+
+\begin{frame}
+ \frametitle{Root filesystem organization}
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item The organization of a Linux root filesystem in terms of
+ directories is well-defined by the {\bf Filesystem Hierarchy
+ Standard}
+ \item \url{http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/lsb/fhs}
+ \item Most Linux systems conform to this specification
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Applications expect this organization
+ \item It makes it easier for developers and users as the
+ filesystem organization is similar in all systems
+ \end{itemize}
+ \end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\begin{frame}
+ \frametitle{Important directories (1)}
+ \begin{description}
+ \item[/bin] Basic programs
+ \item[/boot] Kernel image (only when the kernel is loaded from a
+ filesystem, not common on non-x86 architectures)
+ \item[/dev] Device files (covered later)
+ \item[/etc] System-wide configuration
+ \item[/home] Directory for the users home directories
+ \item[/lib] Basic libraries
+ \item[/media] Mount points for removable media
+ \item[/mnt] Mount points for static media
+ \item[/proc] Mount point for the proc virtual filesystem
+ \end{description}
+\end{frame}
+
+\begin{frame}
+ \frametitle{Important directories (2)}
+ \begin{description}
+ \item[/root]Home directory of the root user
+ \item[/sbin]Basic system programs
+ \item[/sys]Mount point of the sysfs virtual filesystem
+ \item[/tmp]Temporary files
+ \item[/usr]
+ \begin{description}
+ \item[/usr/bin]Non-basic programs
+ \item[/usr/lib]Non-basic libraries
+ \item[/usr/sbin]Non-basic system programs
+ \end{description}
+ \item[/var] Variable data files. This includes spool directories and
+ files, administrative and logging data, and transient and
+ temporary files
+ \end{description}
+\end{frame}
+
+\begin{frame}
+ \frametitle{Separation of programs and libraries}
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Basic programs are installed in \code{/bin} and \code{/sbin}
+ and basic libraries in \code{/lib}
+ \item All other programs are installed in \code{/usr/bin} and
+ \code{/usr/sbin} and all other libraries in \code{/usr/lib}
+ \item In the past, on Unix systems, \code{/usr} was very often
+ mounted over the network, through NFS
+ \item In order to allow the system to boot when the network was
+ down, some binaries and libraries are stored in \code{/bin},
+ \code{/sbin} and \code{/lib}
+ \item \code{/bin} and \code{/sbin} contain programs like \code{ls},
+ \code{ifconfig}, \code{cp}, \code{bash}, etc.
+ \item \code{/lib} contains the C library and sometimes a few other
+ basic libraries
+ \item All other programs and libraries are in \code{/usr}
+ \end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
