Well , that's to be expected , how did you expected mount (
remember mount speaks english ) to do that for you . You did
got that because your mount command was incomplete .
How can I get the accents correctly?
If it is a FAT Partition then you can get it done correctly if it is an
NTFS partition then you can't get it .
For example i used
mount -o iocharset=iso8859-7,codepage=737 /dev/hda1 /mnt/DosDisk
The above command gives you access to a partition that contains Greek .
No for your case just put in the correct value for iocharset and codepage.
Btw what language was that ? Spannish ??
Thanks, Kostas. In fact, I am mounting a Linux partition and *not* a
MS Windows one. The accented word is written in Portuguese.
