I've been having trouble with case sensitive filenames on the gp2x:

VFat should (and does on my Linux boxes) allow you to refer to a file with any capitalisation. On the gp2x you have to match exactly what vfat has decided the capitals are!

VFat translate the capitals on shortnames to lower case, this can usually be turned off by adding shortname=mixed to the options in /etc/fstab - if I do this I get a bricked gp2x! :(

Is this a gp2x special vfat? On other linuxes it all does as I expect

Cheers

[EDIT]

After a bit more experimenting, if I change /etc/fstab or /root/start.sh the changes seem to work but then networking stops working?!?!? I'm started to get frustrated with my new toy now!!!!
