Suggest you try again with the 5 sep build. I think it will > load the nls_cp437 module automatically, but am not sure. Fixed in daily build dated 05-09-2004 (as you predicted :-). Only very minor issue is that modules fat and vfat are not loaded by default, so the first time the stick has to be mounted with the '-t vfat' option.
