A Filesystem's Guide
From Openmoko
Note : The following is far from being complete
The Om 2008.8 filesystem
The root filesystem consists the following directories:
- bin
- dev
- home
- media
- proc
- sys
- usr
- boot
- etc
- lib
- mnt
- sbin
- tmp
- var
The first difference to the standard Linux filesystem is the lack of /root directory. This directory is located under /home/root/.
Under /home/root/.evolution/ one can find the config and data files for contacts, calender, memos and tasks created on the FreeRunner. This doesn't seem to be correct. See the discussion on the talk page.
The file /home/root/.ash_history is a history of commands for the standard shell (ash). If you use bash, it will create the file /home/root/.bash_history.
The inserted micro SD card is mounted under /media/card.
