The symptom is that things don't work.  The uppercase parameter is used by
the Red Hat installation script to do its thing.  The lowercase parameter is
what gets passed to the kernel for its use.  You don't _have_ to specify the
uppercase version, but you'll get prompted by the install script for the
information if you don't.  So, specifying it avoids (potentially erroneous)
keyboard input later on.

What's the symptom if you don't do this?
Thanks,
