depends on version /distribution of linux as to how it is formatted.

the system files are both within the kernel and in the /bin directory.

the boot files are in the /boot directory.
unix/linux does not work like dos and require system boot in root directory.
unless you are root user and really know what you are doing, don't play with them to much.
can only play with them as root., ALL other users are locked out of altering these files. unix / linux system security.
