This article mainly introduces the Linux system mount partition how to use, has a certain reference value, interested friends can refer to, I hope you can learn a lot after reading this article, the following let the editor take you to understand it.

Mounting point

In the Linux system, "partition" is called "mount point". To put it simply, "mount point" means to divide part of the hard disk capacity into a folder for what to do. The name of this folder is called "mount point". So, it's essentially super different from Windows. You'll never see disks C, D or E in any linux distribution system. All you can see is a "mount point" in the form of a "folder".

In the Linux system, there are some mount points that have been defined to do something. Common "mount points" are:

Boot

It should be very common in English, which means guidance. For Linux, part of the capacity, used to "mount" Boot, is the boot file used to store the system.

/ or / ROOT

Just one symbol, which is unique to the Linux system, means "root directory". Root directory, which is used to store some basic configuration files, software settings files and so on.

Home

"Home" means, in the Linux system, it is used to store all the resources of the user's programs, files, documents, etc. Therefore, when carrying out the "partition" operation, it has to be divided into large parts.

SWAP

This is the difference between Linux and Windows***. There is no such thing in Windows, only in Linux system. In fact, it is not a "mount point". For the convenience of rookies, I will take it as a mount point here. A SWAP partition is a dedicated space for "memory" to store files temporarily.

A little knowledge: for most common Linux system cores, the above 2Jet 4. It is enough to have two "mount points" of them. Of course, there are many other "mount points" under Linux, which can be set in detail. I said 2 and 4 are only necessary, must have, the most basic! Without their 2 mount points, you can't continue to install the system at all!

Usr

A place used to store software that comes with the system or is installed by updating.

Tmp

Temporary file storage can be understood as: C:\ Documents and Settings\ Administrator\ Local Settings\ Temp directory under Windows.

Set your own "mount point"

In Windows, we can store something by "creating a new folder", of course, under the distribution of Linux system. In addition to this method, you can also set your own "mount point" when you "partition" (in fact, the function is tantamount to creating a special place to store special things).

There are many others. I will not elaborate on them one by one. There is a picture below, in which there are the corresponding functions of each folder, the things to be stored. Everyone can manually "mount" and set the specific capacity in the process of "partition".

Thank you for reading this article carefully. I hope the article "how to use the mount partition of the Linux system" shared by the editor will be helpful to everyone. At the same time, I also hope that you will support and pay attention to the industry information channel. More related knowledge is waiting for you to learn!
