  1. Actually, the only way to make the system do anything is to very much do mess with them.

  2. Imagine booting Win10 from drive A

  3.  @dawn-moon  You can even terminate bash

  4. I mean, you could conceivably install all core binaries to a system folder and have root manage it. Then all you'd need to do is change some variables to make it work. But why would you ever place all core applications into one folder and make it easy for someone to mess with your computer?

  5. My idea for a better hierarchy: Considering everything is a file in Unix, this concept integrates that idea into a systemd/SELinux system. Thus, every main folder/partition represents a user. The root directory would be organized as such: /root /share /boot /usr1 /usr2 /usr3 etc. Each standard user has complete access to their own folder, but cannot read or write any other standard user's folder or root's folder. Every user has read access to /share and /boot, but root has complete access to them. Each folder contains: /pkg - contains libraries, executables, and their desktop files and master configs. Executing a binary just executes whatever binary is specified in the desktop file. If there is none, nothing happens. /pkgdata - contains program-specific data, including dotfiles, gamesaves, and custom icons. /usrdata - contains all other data, including data shared by everything, for example backgrounds, documents, downloads, etc. /mnt - contains all new drives mounted by the user I've used Gobolinux before, which creates its own hierarchy and uses symlinks to enforce it, thus not requiring a real package manager. I'd figured this would be something similar, only made to follow the way user permissions work. What do you think of this design?

  6.  @Doriandotslash  Freedesktop and symlinks basically enable people to do whatever they want with the hierarchy.

  7. Why not organize partitions by user access? If a user mounts a drive, it appears in their home directory. Simple change, much higher ease of use.

  8. C is mounted to /

  9. It's where you put your .bin files.

  10. How to know everything installed: ls /bin. If that doesn't work, ls /usr/bin.
