NTFS-fs warning (device sdf2): parse_options(): Option utf8 is no longer supported, using option nls=utf8. Please use option nls=utf8 in the future and make sure utf8 is compiled either as a module or into the kernel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug in an external drive with an NTFS partition 2. 3. Actual Results: The NTFS partition is not mounted. An error such as the following is logged: NTFS-fs error (device sdf2): parse_options(): Unrecognized mount option locale. NTFS-fs warning (device sdf2): parse_options(): Option utf8 is no longer supported, using option nls=utf8. Please use option nls=utf8 in the future and make sure utf8 is compiled either as a module or into the kernel.
