I've seen something about this somewhere.... nls iso8859-15 CONFIG_NLS_ISO8859_15 If you want to display filenames with native language characters from the Microsoft fat filesystem family or from JOLIET CDROMs correctly on the screen, you need to include the appropriate input/output character sets. Say Y here for the Latin 9 character set, which covers most West European languages such as Albanian, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Faeroese, Finnish, French, German, Galician, Irish, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, and Valencian. Latin 9 is an update to Latin 1 (ISO 8859-1) that removes a handful of rarely used characters and instead adds support for Estonian, corrects the support for French and Finnish, and adds the new Euro character. If unsure, say Y.
