This changed a while back. What it appears happened was that the vfat
filesystem for some reason now understands upper/lower case. In
actuality it was always /boot/efi/EFI but the linux implementation of
vfat shifted the directory name to lower case.
Yes the file system changing might be the point. There is a "%define
image_install_path boot/efi/EFI/redhat" for ia64 in kernel.spec since fc4.
So the kernel dir was always /boot/efi/EFI/redhat.
