NTFS "umlaut" problem - proper mount options needed?
Posted: 03 Oct 2012, 10:09
Hello,
I have a problem: When downloading files to an NTFS-Filesystem, I sometimes get an Error:
"ntfs-3g[3943]: Could not convert filename to Unicode: 'S02E20 - Die Mõnnerrunde.part3.rar': Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character "
What can I do to mount some NTFS-filesystem properly so all umlauts and special chars are going to be "just being used" - or - being converted properly?
Also, when mounting a Windows7 installation on /dev/sda1, it never seems to be able to display the umlauts correctly. "Startmenü" never appears under Linux as such,
"midnight commander" outputs: "Startmen??"
It's a german computer.
Any help?
