File name on CD shown as UPPERCASE;1 on CD

Reggie Chang — Tue, 12 Feb 2002 20:06:47 GMT

Hi,

One thing puzzles me now.

I burned a CD which has file names as lower case.
Those files showed lower case file names on other
platforms (SUNS, SGI, Linux). But when I tried on
our HP machine (HP 9000 C360 running 10.20),
they are like UPPERCASE_FILENAME;1. (The CD was burned by a NT machine.)

Is this a problem of device (internal CDROM drive), or there is a trick to use the mount command?

All kinds of information/suggestion are welcome.

Best regards,

Reggie

Hi,

You can use the command pfs_mount with option "-t" to specify the type of file system [-t rrip (or) -t iso9660].

Or you can try with mount command itself by using the -f cdfs option.
Ex.
mount -f cdfs /dev/dsk/c?d?t? /cd???

use the "-o cdcase" option when you mount the cd. This should suppress the version number (;1) and show in lowercase. Also see man mount_cdfs for option details.

Hope this helps
