From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hey, I've recently designed a Poster about the FHS since I often forget where I should place or find things. Do you have any feedback how to make it better?

I updated the poster: https://whimsical.com/fhs-L6iL5t8kBtCFzAQywZyP4X use the link to see online.

And /net is usually autofs mounted.

That's NFS shares? I might add that later although it's not very common or standard I guess. Thx

[–] jaybone 3 points 9 months ago

Yeah, nfs exports that can be mounted by HOSTNAME or ip address automatically with autofs. Sorry if that’s not standard, like my other comment about /mnt. I’ve never actually looked at the spec. I was just giving feedback based on what I’ve seen in the industry. So might not be spec compliant but a lot of it is common practice I’ve seen (for better or worse.)
