This needs some modernization and simplification, if Linux ever wants to make it to the mainstream.

This is a much better layout:
/system (contains /boot, /dev, /proc, /run, /sys, /tmp and /var, all the stuff no one ever looks at)
/config (/etc renamed to something sensible)
/apps (contains /bin, /sbin, /usr, /lib and /opt)
/server (renamed /srv, only gets created when needed)
/users (renamed /home, also contains /root now)
