- root, rroot, usr, rusr, swap, rswap - partition names

- rrrrooooooootttt, rrrrrrrrooooooootttt, uuuussssrrrr, rrrruuuussssrrrr, sssswwwwaaaapppp, and rrrrsssswwwwaaaapppp are the device special files
- providing access to important partitions on the root disk drive of a
- system. These links are made by the _M_A_K_E_D_E_V(1m) script, and map to fixed
- partitions, even if not used that way by local conventions. Therefore it
- is best not to change these links, if you intend to use different
- partition layouts, but rather to use the full device name (/_d_e_v/_d_s_k/_d_k_s*)
- instead, particular in _f_s_t_a_b(4). The names beginning with rrrr are the raw
- (character) device access; the others are the block device access, which
- uses the kernel buffer system.
-
- The standard system drive partition allocation shipped by Silicon
- Graphics has rrrrooooooootttt on partition 0 and sssswwwwaaaapppp on partition 1. Partition 7 is
- the entire usable portion of the disk (excluding the volume header) and
- is normally used for _o_p_t_i_o_n drives, rather than the system drive.
- Partition 8 is the volume header (see _v_h(7M), _p_r_t_v_t_o_c(1M), and
- _d_v_h_t_o_o_l(1M)). Partition 10 (_vvvv_oooo_llll) is the entire drive.
-
- The standard system with SCSI drives usually has /_d_e_v/_r_o_o_t linked to
- /_d_e_v/_d_s_k/_d_k_s_0_d_1_s_0, /_d_e_v/_s_w_a_p linked to /_d_e_v/_d_s_k/_d_k_s_0_d_1_s_1, and (if / and
- /usr are separate filesystems, a _u_s_r_r_o_o_t partitioning), /_d_e_v/_u_s_r linked
- to /_d_e_v/_d_s_k/_d_k_s_0_d_1_s_6.
