Er, the ISO9660 format is case-insensitive and 8.3 filename limited to cater to the FAT crowd. If you're copying from UNIX machines, option on the RockRidge extensions (with the -R option?). This preserves case and preserves symlinks, too. If you want mixed-case for Windows machines, you'll have to find a Joilet-enabled mkisofs.
