Hi, thanks again for hints.
I think the problem happens becouse i am running 32bit VM(3.7-7) on 64bit OS (FreeBSd 5.4 amd64)

squeak -version
Squeak3.7 of '4 September 2004' [latest update: #5989]

The problem is in FileDirecory.
For example

FileDirectory default entries
returns #()

But If you run 
FileDirectory default directoryContentsFor: '/'
and after that
FileDirectory default entries 
you get correct file list.

To fix it I just changed method in FileDirectory>>entries 

FileDirectory default directoryContentsFor: '/'.
 ^ self directoryContentsFor: pathName

--------
Now my app works fine with files (as it store some data as ImageSegments
and check filenames)

sources are still not loading at startup, but I think it is easy to fix now.
If i only knew where the sources loadin code located :-)
