I had similar problems and (humor me here) try
| Code: |
touch /dev/sda
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/mountpoint
|
Something to do with usb timeouts. this may not help you at all. |

| Code: | CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE=437
CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="iso8859-2"
....
....
CONFIG_NLS=y
CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT="iso8859-2"
CONFIG_NLS_UTF8=y |
Will try that out...
I'll also try your suggestion mcspiff (yes, I'm desperate  ). |

However, I never quite understood exactly why that helped. Anyway, good luck on ya... |
Finally got around to recompile the kernel and funny enough... IT WORKED! I love you right now I guess USB/VFAT doesn't like USA  Thanks again.

Yeah - we have all been there, or nearly there. Maybe its only the way keyboards get after some determined Gentoo config/compiling that stops us going the whole way. |
