The system administrator must configure the mount options codepage and iocharset for the file system type FAT and VFAT that are typically used for floppy disks, zip drives, and removable hard-disks on Microsoft Windows. For example, if you import from Traditional Chinese Windows, the settings must be as shown in the following table to browse the traditional Chinese filenames correctly.
Mount Option |
Traditional Chinese Setting |
---|---|
codepage |
950 |
iocharset |
big5 |
Sample entries for /etc/fstab for the Traditional Chinese example are as follows:
/dev/fd0h1440 |
/media/fd0h1440 |
vfat noauto,iocharset=big5,codepage=950 |
/dev/sda1 |
/media/iee1394disk |
vfat noauto,iocharset=big5,codepage=950 |
