Do you have NEWFATFS and VFAT switched on for the drives which 
are appearing in lower case?

There is a flag called VFATLCASE which defaults to showing names
in lower case on VFAT Drives.  See the example MINT.CNF:

# VFATLCASE=[yn]
# force return of FAT names in lower case on VFAT drives
# global option; default is yes

Hope this helps.
