+System Initialization
+
+
+	After the RTEMS initialization is performed, the application's initialization will 
+be performed. Part of initialization is a call to rtems_filesystem_initialize(). This routine 
+will mount the `In Memory File System' as the base file system. 
+
+Mounting the base file system consists of the following:
+
+? Initialization of mount table chain control structure 
+? Allocation of a -jnode- structure that will server as the root node of the `In Memory 
+File System'
+? Initialization of the allocated -jnode- with the appropriate OPS, directory handlers 
+and pathconf limits and options.
+? Allocation of a memory region for file system specific global management variables
+? Creation of first mount table entry for the base file system 
+? Initialization of the first mount table chain entry to indicate that the mount point is 
+NULL and the mounted file system is the base file system
+
+
+After the base file system has been mounted, the following operations are performed 
+under its directory structure:
+
+? Creation of the /dev directory
+? Registration of devices under /dev directory
