1. Rename the redhat directory to RedHat (exact case match).
2. Rename the rpms directory to RPMS (exact case match).
3. Rename any files in the RPMS directory so they match case too.
There are 48 files that contain capital letters.
DOS won't let you change the case of a name directly.
Rename each one in two steps: redhat ---> xxx ---> RedHat
I can see a bat file in your future... Or a CD....
