Do I need access to rootfs to access /usr folder?

Interesting... Yes, to access /usr, you'll need to use the terminal (or an alternate file manager, if one is available). If you install mplayer, here's how you can test it.

Code:

$ cd /usr/share/sounds
$ mplayer some_sound_file.ext

where the '$' is the prompt, and the file is one of the files in that folder. You can list all of the files by typing "ls" after the first command, or tap the tab key (on-screen) twice to use autocomplete when executing the mplayer command.
If this sounds complicated, don't worry about it right now. I was asking that out of curiosity, and I could probably ask more useful troubleshooting questions with more sleep. :P
