Startup
During system startup the virtual file system is populated with a '/local' directory that contains symbolic links to directories with the '/system/mounts/TEMP' directory, which has a /tmpfs/ filesystem mounted to it.
During system startup the /system/mounts/TEMP' directory is populated with a copy of the directories that are contained within the '/system/defaults/' directory.
Directory | Target | Copied from |
---|---|---|
/local/data | /system/mounts/TEMP/data | /system/defaults/data |
/local/log | /system/mounts/TEMP/log | /system/defaults/log |
/local/settings | /system/mounts/TEMP/settings | /system/defaults/settings |
/local/users | /system/mounts/TEMP/users | /system/defaults/users |
During the system build the '/system/mounts/TEMP' directory contains symbolic links pointing to the directories under the '/system/defaults' directory so that these can be populated with any required build scripts.
