Does any platform known to use yaboot (or grub for that matter) use
the
preferred encoding of the manufacturer portion of the name property?
How about the "ONNNNN" OUI from the RAC, or the uppercase VWXYZ
company stock symbol?
Apple sometimes uses AAPL. Never seen the ONNNNNN thing.
My view has been limited to the IBM platform. According to the
examples, this is a recommended practice. I know IBM uses the
lowercase variant.
Which _is_ allowed, although discouraged.
