I may be wrong, I am new to Android as well, but from my experience in Linux, you should be able to view, i.e. navigate to, any directory even if your device isn't rooted. The problem comes when you try to edit or modify a system (root owned) directory or file.
As for me, on my 1.6 Dingo PE, I was able to navigate to the /system/esi/etc/pixmaps directory with no problem. Under ../pixmaps, however, are two directories - ../tablet and ../reader - no ../mct directory.
