Directory tree structure in Unix always starts at the top node, or "root" node. It contains all of the major level subdirectories underneath it. The root directory is called "/" (root).
Root directory.
root directory is the top of the directory tree. it is \ on windows (or c:\ d:\ etc.) and / on unix/linux
When a user logs in to a Unix system, the current working directory normally starts at the directory/file
ls -lR directory
CD /
Once your in the directory you have to type the following: du -a
The two links are for the current directory (.) and the parent directory (..). This is allow for easy directory traversal.
The ls command.
The host file in Unix is usually located in the /etc directory.
cp project9/inputfiledat project10 Assuming that you are in a directory that has project9 and project10 as subdirectories.
You rename a directory the same way you rename a file. Use the 'mv' command to rename it.
You will need to be more clear about the target - is 'oracle' a directory?
