Dear Huiying,
my first guess is that you copied the files onto an external hard drive which
was formatted for Windows (with vfat). If you tried to read the images from the
same drive can confuse Linux systems, because Linux is literate, whereas vfat
does not distinguish between capital and lower case letters.
If that's a possible reason try copying the images to a local drive and check
the permissions (which also often get screwed up by copying files to and fro
vfat).

I had trouble adding image files into iMosflm (1.0.4) GUI running on our
in-house Linux machine (64-bit, Fedoro). It complained about the
filenames:
* FATAL ERROR *
Image filenames must be of the form ABCDE_###.ext or ABCDE-###.ext where
the initial string can be up to 40 characters long and must be separated
from a 3 digit number by a _ or -, and the extension (ext) can be up
to 8 characters long.
The filenames are actually following the convention Mosflm required. The
same image files were readable by iMosflm on Linux machine at the
synchrotron station.
Is anything wrong with our iMosflm installation, configuration...?
Thanks for your help.
