I noticed that too :) .The problem is I don't know what is the name of "/".
Or, said in other words "How can I make the connection between "/" and a
name of a volume?".
I noticed the "/" is not listed in /Volumes in Terminal so I can't get it's
name from there ...

In the end I don't mind if anybody has a Cocoa solution ...

Tanks for your time, Cristian
