During installation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 "grep -Fi" may not give the correct output
Issue
- In the installer context (where grep is actually symbolically linked to busybox), running grep -FI may not give correct output. For example:
[root@host ~]# echo HP | grep -Fi hp
[root@host ~]# echo HP | grep -i hp
HP
- Both commands hould return the same output ("HP").
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5
- busybox-1.2.0-7.el5
- Installation or Rescue Environment
