Hi,

I read "Gentoo Linux USB Guide" but I still can't mount my USB drive (I tried mounting two different brands and neither of them worked). Every time I try to mount them I get the error:
Code:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so


when I run dmesg I get:
Code:

SCSI device sdc: 4001425 512-byte hdwr sectors (2049 MB)
sdc: Write Protect is off
sdc: Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00
sdc: assuming drive cache: write through
 sdc: sdc1
sd 5:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sdc
sd 5:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0
usb-storage: device scan complete
FAT: IO charset iso8859-8 not found
FAT: IO charset iso8859-8 not found


Can someone assist me?

Sincerely,
Ran Rutenberg

As your dmesg tells you

Code:
FAT: IO charset iso8859-8 not found


Seems like you need that. Check your kernel config for more info.
Also make sure you "Default iocharset for FAT" is set to a iocharset that you have compiled...

Can you post your /usr/src/linux/.config, with that we can check what is messing in your kernel configuration.

Hi,

I uploaded my .config file to:
http://download.yousendit.com/B7EA5D12352CA28F

Where in the kernel can I change the default iocharset for FAT?


Thanks,
