I have SuSE Linux 9.0 Professional and Windows 98 (Russian edition) on the same computer. I can mount windows partitions without any problems, but if folder/file name in this partition is in russian I can see only ??????.
In /etc/fstab I wrote parameters like iocharset=cp1251 and codepage=866, but nothing have been changed (it works fine in ASP Linux - russian distribution based on Red Hat).
cp1251 is apparently supported in recent kernel versions
(see also /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Configure.help). I.e.
that is probably not the problem.
But maybe your terminal cannot display this encoding?
What terminal and what locale settings are you using?
By the way, I think it is better to switch to ru_RU.UTF-8 locale on
your Linux system and use iocharset=utf8 instead of iocharset=cp1251.
