In Linux, which directory is the top-level directory of the entire file system hierarchy?
- A./
- B./root
- C./home
- D./etc
Why A is correct
The forward slash (/) represents the root directory in Linux, which is the top of the file system hierarchy. All other directories and files are contained within it. Do not confuse this with /root, which is the home directory for the root (superuser) account.
