Function of boot block:

Boot block is first block of any device.It contains vital MBR and Partition information. When we
start up computer, it will first execute the application on Boot Block, which mainly takes charge
to test the integrity of BIOS file. If BIOS is perfect without any damage, then it will boot self-
inspection normally; but if the BIOS code is corrupted, the boot block will try to recover the
BIOS code, usually by reading it from a specially-prepared floppy disk. We may have to change a
jumper on the motherboard to enable this capability, and We may need to make use of a "plain
vanilla" ISA video card.The boot block will load the BIOS code and then when We next reboot,
the regular BIOS code should be in place and the problem resolved.

File Hierarchy :

File Hierarchy is a way to organize files in a filesystem using directories & subdirectories. we
can show file hierarchy as an upside down tree like the following figure

APACHE SERVER:

Apache is the most widely used HTTP-server in the world today. It is also the most
used web server for a Linux system. A web server like Apache, in its simplest
function, is software that displays and serves HTML pages hosted on a server to a
client browser that understands the HTML code. Mixed with third party modules
and programs, it can become powerful software, which will provide strong and
useful services to a client browser.

Why Apache?

The name 'Apache' was chosen from respect for the Native American Indian
tribe of Apache (Indé), well-known for their superior skills in warfare strategy
and their inexhaustible endurance
Secondarily, and more popularly (though incorrectly) accepted, it's a
considered cute name which stuck. Apache is "A PAtCHy server". It was based
on some existing code and a series of "patch files".
