That mean for the "system" (or everything ) no differences are made
between
FOO, FoO, Foo and so on.
Yes, it's case insensitive.
I am not convainced, it is "case preserving"
It's case preserving because if you do a plain "ls", then it will show
you "FoO" and nothing else. The fact that ls can find that file as Foo
and FOO as well, is because the filesystem is case insensitive.
