In my experience this is normal OS X/Unix behavior. The "root" level
of the system is defined as the "top" level of the boot volume, so in
a terminal if you do 'cd /' you are taken to the top level of the
boot drive. If my boot volume is 'Macintosh HD' that information is
not included in the path name. However, if I want to access a file or
folder on another volume I must preface the cd command with /Volumes/
DriveName.
The behavior is Rev is consistent with the unix file system model and
is completely expected.

Hello all -
don't want to distract anyone from the serious business of playing
with translucent windows, (well done Runtime on 2.6) but could
anyone shed any light on this???:
If I do: "get the filename of this stack" on my G5(Tiger) it
returns "/Volumes/Starfish Internal 250/Scripter/filename test/
filename test.app/Contents/MacOS/filename test" i.e. the full path.
If I run it on G3 laptop(Panther) it returns "/filename test.app/
Contents/MacOS/filename test"
(whereas to be consistent, it should have returned /Volumes/
Powerbook HD/filename test.app/Contents/MacOS/filename test")
This is a big problem for me as I need to pass the path information
to a text file to be read by another (SC) application.
Can anyone offer any advice? Is it a bug? Is there a workaround?
All the best,
Chris
