I seem to be having an interesting problem creating a CD that is bootable on Alpha. I built a release (too a while on the PWS600au but it got there). Then created an .iso using the /usr/share/examples/worm/makecdfs.sh Subsequently ran setcdboot to make it bootable. Ran cdrecord and wrote the whole thing on CDRW. All mkisofs, setcdboot, cdrecord, done on the PWS itself. On trying to boot I get the phenomenon listed below: ALL CAPS filenames. mkisofs is version 1.14, freshly built from ports. Mounting the CD under FreeBSD produces lower case filenames like we are used to. Should be mkisofs' fault I would assume. Any clues? I going thru this exercise to be able to test CD booting on the big iron machines I have at work. Wilko OSF PAL rev: 0x1000000020116 Switch to OSF PAL code succeeded.
