Re: Why complicated directory structure in Linux

mydejamail@xxxxxxxxxxx did eloquently scribble:


Why is Linux directory structure laid out so, what is the rationale

Simple.
Everything has its place rather than dumping things randomly around the hard
disk.

bin = binary
sbin = "system" binary (things required to get the machine booted up and
other things for system monitoring and maintenance)
etc...
