File system - question?
Hello,
I have few questions about file system in Unix and Linux.
1. What's the difference between Unix and Linux in their file system? Are they the same?
2. Is in Unix directory for administrator "/root" - like in Linux - Ubuntu or not?
3.Where is the users directory in Unix? Is it /home/(username)?
I know that OpenSolaris is Unix base OS from System V, so I download their live CD. Their file system are similar to Ubuntu. Except that I don't see the home directory.
I know this are very stupid questions but I need to now the differences.
Thank you for help!!!
