Hello OSFers.

        I have a CD from Cisco (its their UniverCD as a matter of fact)
        which has, I believe ISO-9660 format. With it come some instructions
        on how to mount it on the Sun under SunOS or Solaris, or on an
        RS/6000 or a HP9000, but not on a DEC ALpha running OSF/1.

        When I mount it on the Sun with the command:

            mount -r -t hsfs /dev/sr0 /cdrom

        all goes well, and I get a directory tree under /cdrom which
        is all in lower case as we expect ordinarily with Unix filesystems.

        When I mount it on the Alpha using:

            mount -r -t cdfs /dev/rz4c /cdrom,

        the disk mounts OK but all the filenames are in uppercase
        some with ';'s as though we are looking at a DOS created
        disk.

        My questions:

        (1) Is there a way, under OSF, of getting the lower case names
        with some option to the mount command or some such?

        (2) Are there more than one file systems on this disk
        and if so, how do I get at the others?

        (3) Any other suggestions about how I might get normal filenames
        are welcome.
