capital letters GONE!

I have an odd issue.

I am trying to copy some files/folders to my linux box via a burned CD which I created on my mac. When I browse the files on the mac (or my windows box), everything looks fine (some of the folder names start with a capital letter, which is needed for everything to work right - adding to a photo web page which was auto-created with iPhoto), but when I mount the CD on my linux box (mandrake) and browse the files/folders everything is in lower case. I'm not sure what I'm doing/not doing to have this issue, because when I initally created the photo site, and copied files (via CD) to the linux box, everything worked great.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
