Not possible to analyze system folders / no SuperUser support

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start application
2. Select App Storage

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to be able to see the app storage at least, but also the system data 
folders as to locate things more closely. Instead, I can only see the 
applications and the space they use - which doesn't really have an impact on 
me, which is due to using A2SD+.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.0.5 - MIUI-Au 1.2.11 R1 - though not relevant.

Please provide any additional information below.
It'd be greatly appreciated if it could be "Internal storage" or "Root" rather 
than just "App Storage" for looking at the phone's internal storage. That's the 
one thing I've been looking for in an app like this, but otherwise it's 
splendid.

That's strange. Could you describe your phone? What is the model of the device, 
android version, mod if any. Could you run in terminal emulator the command:
cat /proc/mounts
You should definitely see your card next to apps storage.
Currently superuser mode is not supported.

Ah yes, I think we may have a tiny misunderstanding. 
It's an HTC Desire, MIUI-Au 1.2.11 R1 (Android 2.2) with vorkKernel.

The problem is not seeing my card next to apps storage, I'm requesting support 
for superuser mode so that I can see /data/ and / (root) in general.

Root support is in my plans.

A recent update added Root support but I still only see Data folder when 
selecting App storage.  I have a Motorola Droid running Cyanogenmod 7 Nightly # 
38.  The app does not request superuser privileges.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the app.  The app still does not request 
superuser rights when selecting App Storage

I can also confirm this, at least from the market version.

What is the path to your 'su' binary? The app expects 'su' in /system/bin/su. 
If it finds it - it enables additional features.

My busybox is located in /system/xbin, that's at least the standard for
MIUI.

Could you try attached DiskUsage version? It should work with /system/xbin/su 
as well.

Works! :-)

My SU binary was in /system/xbin as well.  I copied it over to /system/bin and 
the additional functionality worked.

Should work ok on DiskUsage 2.1.3 available from Market.
