the problem did not came only from OS, but also from the filesystem.

dot at the beginning of the file usually mean that the file is hidden (but exist).

on a ext4 partition, only / is not possible in your list.

i don't know about fat : since it's the only filesystem that allow to be read / write by the 3 major OS, it's important to test.

i also don't know about what happen on a DVDROM.

experience told me that if you are looking for trouble, you will find them at some point.
