2.6.0-test8 PROBLEM: codepage=850 doesn't work with mount

Hi,

If you've got this line in your /etc/fstab:

/dev/hda5 /mnt/win_d vfat quiet,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,umask=0 0 0

You will get the following message during mount -a:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda5,
or too many mounted file systems

I've chessed out that the problemataic part is the codepage=850. When I've removed it the mount goes ok.


My system:
Linux version 2.6.0-test8 (root@localhost) (gcc version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-3mdk)) #3 SMP Mon Oct 20 12:32:45 CEST 2003

After this I've patched my kernel with supermount patch for 2.6.0-test7, but doesn't work. After configuring, recompile, and installing I still get this message:
mount: fs type supermount not supported by kernel

Please feel free to ask me about these problems and CC me, while I'm not on the list.

Kind Regards,
Chip...
