I can only answer making one of the following assumtions

- You've launched your image doing a double click
- or by doing drag and drop on a vm
- or from the command line from the root '/' directory

In any of those three cases, the operating system will assign '/' as
working directory. Thus any file created from a relative path will be
relative to it.

Check also:

'foo‘ asFileReference parent = FileSystem workingDirectory.
'foo‘ asFileReference = FileSystem workingDirectory / 'foo'.

and:

'/‘ asFileReference = FileSystem workingDirectory.
