Nah, I just built the links before I took off this evening on a 10.10 system. Had to do it, since the mounted CD-ROM had all uppercase file names. But this makes me wonder - is there any special option for mounting the CD-ROM that would do this case conversion? I checked the man pages but didn't see anything, at least not on the mount(1m) command. A mount option with the -o flag (for FS specific options) perhaps? If so, it might be available with 10.01 as well.

Maybe Mr. Eden could fill us in on this if he knows what's going on . . . Received on Tue Jun 25 1996 - 00:00:00 CEST
