### Case sensitivity
|

|

MiSTer runs Linux, which is generally case-sensitive but not in the MiSTer's default case using just

the SD-card for storage. The SD-card is formatted using exFAT, which is case-insensitive. NFS, on the

your SD-card ```NeoGeo``` and ```NEOGEO``` are the same thing, while they're quite distinct via NFS.
