The question is: does the filesystem on the USB disk supports UTF-8 characters in the file/directory names ? And if so, does the 'mount' has the correct parameters when is invoked at mount time ? E.g.: for a VFAT volume : http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/MountFATFileSystems you might try the options described on that page. -- mitu ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
