Location Does anyone put something serious here?

It isn't a bug as such. Shell looks in the current folder first when trying to execute a program, so it tries to execute the help file for cd, ls, etc…
The best thing to do is run /rom/programs/cd ../

This is not a bug. SquidDev's explanation is correct. There is a chunk of my Computer Basics I tutorial that covers this exact scenario.

Closed.
