Comment (by HAL):

 Replying to [comment:2 humdinger]:
 > Don't know why and where it goes wrong, but the reason is that the
 folders on the boot partition don't have their file type set, which is
 empty instead of "application/x-vnd.Be-directory". All folders on my
 second BFS partition do have it set and the query works there. Doing a
 "Force identify" (SHIFT+rightclick) on a folder corrects the issue. A "{{{
 mimeset /boot/* }}}" will set all file types on the boot partition.
 Something that AFAIK is supposed to be done while installing.

 I tried "mimeset /boot/* " and as humdinger says it will enable find by
 folder. Is this not been done automatically at install?
