Hi!

I put bin dist in C:\FREEBSD as BIN. But, I run Windows 95, and it
seems that the filenames could be just about anything. For example:
C:\Freebsd\Bin, C:\Freebsd\bin etc etc.

How does FreeBSD(sysinstall) handle this? It looks like sysinstall or
the fat fs doesn't convert the filenames to uppercase.

I found out this yesterday, after wiping out 2.2-stable, while trying
to install 3.0-990129-snap.

Should I report this to GNATS?
