Managing Files and Directories

Understanding the Filesystem Hierarchy

Linux has a unique directory structure, starting from the root directory (/). Important directories include:

• /home: User directories.
• /etc: Configuration files.
• /var: Variable files (logs, databases, etc.).

Creating, Moving, and Deleting Files

Managing files is easy in Linux. You can create files using touch, move files with mv, and delete them using rm.

Managing Permissions and Ownership

One of the critical features of Linux is its robust permission system. Learn how to manage file permissions using commands like chmod, chown, and chgrp.
