What is under /(root) director

/bin	Common programs, shared by the system, the system administrator and the users.

/dev	Contains references to all the CPU peripheral hardware, which are represented as files with special properties.
/etc	Most important system configuration files are in /etc, this directory contains data similar to those in the Control Panel in Windows
