Figure 5.1. GNOME System Monitor File Systems tab
5.2.1.2. The /boot/ Directory
The /boot/ directory contains static files required to boot the system, e.g. the Linux kernel. These
files are essential for the system to boot properly.
Warning
Do not remove the /boot/ directory. Doing so renders the system unbootable.
5.2.1.3. The /dev/ Directory
The /dev/ directory contains device nodes that represent the following device types:
• Devices attached to the system
• Virtual devices provided by the kernel
These device nodes are essential for the system to function properly. The udevd daemon creates and
removes device nodes in /dev/ as needed.
Devices in the /dev/ directory and subdirectories are either character (providing only a serial stream
of input/output, e.g. mouse or keyboard) or block (accessible randomly, e.g. hard drive, floppy drive). If
you have GNOME or KDE installed, some storage devices are automatically detected when connected
(e.g via USB) or inserted (e.g via CD or DVD drive), and a popup window displaying the contents
appears.
