[SunHELP] cdrecord question

I see this all the time when people have mounted Oracle CDs in 
an HP-UX box and didn't use the Portable File System daemon
that ships with HP.  The reason is that Oracle (and other 
companies) use Rock Ridge extensions to the file system, thus
straing ISO gives the file name in upper case with a ;1 (revision
number).

Try mounting the cdrom is -o cdcase and see if that fixes your
problem.  If not, man pfs_mount and you can read all about the
portable file system and the effects it has on ISO filesystems.
