SFL - Securizant Fileystem Layout
The root directory of the Securizant filesystem contains three directories: a 'system' directory, which mounts a read-only disk image file that stores the operating system; a 'local' directory, which mounts a local persistent disk; and a 'network' directory, which contains directories representing network shares.
However, please note that certain sub-directories under the '/sytem' directory mount non-read only temporary file-systems and other file systems such as 'procfs'.
| Directory / File | Notes | FHS |
|---|---|---|

| /system/default/users | ||
| /system/devices | Mounts 'tempfs' directory and is populated by 'udevd' | /dev |
| /system/features | Each feature directory mounts a readonly disk image which has been populated in a similar way to '/system/software/', except 'source' which contains the source packages used to build the system. | |
