Hello,

My copy of 5.7 arrived yesterday, but I seem to have problems booting
from the second CD (trying to boot an amd64 system)

The system will not boot at all - it reports that it can't see a
bootable disk.  I can boot the same system from the first CD (i386)
and this all works OK

If I take a look at the second CD, it seems that all of the files are
in uppercase, which isn't what I would have expected. The first CD
shows the installation files (base57.tgz etc.) having the expected case.

Is anyone else seeing similar issues?
