<p>Tata letak sistem file Haiku cukup transparan, berusaha untuk selalu menggunakan nama tak-samar untuk file dan folder, yang tidak membuat pengguna menebak-nebak. Berkas dan folder yang penting bagi sistem untuk berfungsi dengan baik, dilindungi dari penempaan tidak disengaja dengan menunjukkan salah satu peringatan ini:</p>
<p>Lansiran kedua muncul jika Anda mencoba mengubah nama atau menghapus sesuatu di hierarki sistem. Di sini, tombol "<spanclass="button">Rename</span>" hanya akan dapat diklik saat Anda menahan tombol <spanclass="key">SHIFT</span> .</p>
<p>Secara umum, ada dua cabang terpisah yang muncul dari folder root volume boot:</p>
<tr><td><spanclass="path">/boot/system/</span></td><td></td><td>Berisi file sistem dan aplikasi/paket yang dipakai bersama oleh semua pengguna.</td></tr>
<tr><td><spanclass="path">/boot/home/</span></td><td></td><td>Ini adalah folder pribadi Anda tempat Anda menyimpan data dan pengaturan Anda serta aplikasi/paket yang tidak dipakai bersama oleh semua pengguna.</td></tr>
<p>As long as Haiku isn't multi-user, this distinction between shared and not-shared applications/packages has no apparent effect, as there's only one user with one home folder. But since there will be support for more users than one eventually, it makes sense to learn the right way from the start.</p>
<aid="system"name="system">The system folder - <spanclass="path">/boot/system/</span></a></h2>
<p>Under Haiku's predecessor BeOS, this folder was named <spanclass="path">/boot/beos/</span>. You may still find it in some older documentation (e.g. in the original BeBook).<br/>
Most of the folders inside <spanclass="path">/boot/system/</span> are read-only, which is sensible as they contain the files necessary for Haiku to function correctly and therefore have to be safe from (accidental) alteration. The only user-writable folders are:</p>
<tr><td><spanclass="path">/boot/system/cache/</span></td><td></td><td>Contains cached files and the temporary folder linked to <spanclass="path">/tmp/</span>.</td></tr>
<tr><tdclass="onelinetop"><spanclass="path">/boot/system/non-packaged/</span></td><td></td><td>Contains a hierarchy for files that aren't part of a .hpkg (probably from old BeOS archives).</td></tr>
<tr><td><spanclass="path">/boot/system/packages/</span></td><td></td><td>Besides holding Haiku's system packages, you can add/remove packages shared by all users.</td></tr>
<tr><td><spanclass="path">/boot/system/var/</span></td><td></td><td>Contains logs like the syslog (important when troubleshooting) and is the default location for the swap file.</td></tr>

<aid="home"name="home">The home folder - <spanclass="path">/boot/home/</span></a></h2>
<p>This folder belongs to you. Here you can create and delete files and folders as you wish. (By the way, the tilde ("<tt>~</tt>") is a shortcut for your home folder, so you don't always have to write "<spanclass="path">/boot/home/</span>" in Terminal.)<br/>
Files that you'd like to share with other users in a future multi-user environment have do be put outside <spanclass="path">/boot/home/</span>. For example, you could create a folder <spanclass="path">/boot/all-users/</span> and put the stuff there.</p>
<td>Holds the files of your desktop. Double-clicking won't open it, as it is already always visible. When your files happen to be obscured by open windows, just switch quickly to another <ahref="workspaces.html">Workspace</a>. Of course, <ahref="tracker.html#drill-down">drilling</a> down by right-clicking is also possible.</td></tr>
<td><ahref="queries.html">Queries</a> are stored here, by default temporarily for 7 days.</td></tr>

<p>The folder <spanclass="path">/boot/home/config/</span> is special: just like <spanclass="path">/boot/system/</span> it's mostly under the control of the package management and therefore read-only. It too contains these similar user-writable folders:</p>
<td>This folder contains the settings to all applications and a few configurations for the system. Some applications manage their settings in their own subfolders, others simply put their configuration file in there.</td></tr>

<p>Here are some of the more interesting subfolders in <spanclass="path">~/config/settings/</span>:</p>
<td>This folder is the place for <ahref="bash-scripting.html#user-scripts">User Scripts</a> that are executed before or after the system boots up or shuts down.</td></tr>
<td>In this <acronymtitle="Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions">MIME</acronym> database Haiku keeps track of all the different <ahref="filetypes.html">filetypes</a> and their settings.</td></tr>
<td>There's one settings file that may be of interest: <spanclass="cli">kernel</span> offers some low level configurations like disabling <acronymtitle="Symmetric Multi Processing">SMP</acronym>, activating serial debugging or enabling advanced power management. You activate a configuration line by removing the commentary symbol "<tt>#</tt>". Be careful here!</td></tr>
<td>Besides the various settings files for Tracker, there are some interesting subfolders:</td></tr>
<tr><tdalign="right"><spanclass="path">DefaultFolderTemplate/</span></td><tdstyle="width:10px;"></td><td>Show and arrange all attributes and the window size to your liking. Every new folder you create will use it as a template.</td></tr>
<tr><tdalign="right"><spanclass="path">DefaultQueryTemplates/</span></td><td></td><td>You can define the layout of query result windows for certain filetypes. See topic <ahref="queries.html#result-window">Query: The result window</a>.</td></tr>
<tr><tdalign="right"><spanclass="path">Go/</span></td><td></td><td>Put links to your favorite locations in here to make them available e.g. in open and save panels. See topic <ahref="gui.html#favorites-recent">Haiku's GUI: Favorites and recent folders</a>.</td></tr>
<tr><tdalign="right"><spanclass="path">Tracker New Template/</span></td><td></td><td>Add a template for any filetype that's then available from Tracker's <spanclass="menu">File | New...</span> menu. See topic <ahref="tracker.html#working-with-files">Tracker: Working with files</a>.</td></tr>
