On my RHELv4 system I mount a usbdrive using the following.... /bin/mount -t vfat -o codepage=1255,iocharset=iso8859-8,utf8 /dev/sdd1 /media/usbdisk I then created a directory and did an ls. The results were... [egreshko@misty bin]$ ls /media/usbdisk/ namedb named.conf patch-vmnet-for-linux-2.6.22.1 shorewall תיקייהעברית Also lsmod showed nls_cp1255 to have been loaded. I then umounted the disk and remounted with... /bin/mount /media/usbdisk and ls showed.... [egreshko@misty bin]$ ls /media/usbdisk/ ??????????? namedb named.conf patch-vmnet-for-linux-2.6.22.1 shorewall I then moved the usbdisk to my F8 system and allowed the system to automount it.... It shows fine... I think you are using F8. You may want to try allowing it to be automounted. I'll try using the options on F8 when I have time...but just a bit busy as of now.... Unless you think there is no need for me to try things for you.
