Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

Please add UTF-8 support to all removable devices such as CDs, DVDs, floppies, etc.

I've posted this bug for Dapper, and it has been partially fixed.

The fix is quite primitive. When 50fstab_removable_media_entries writes an entry to fstab it fills up the fs options, i.e. for cdroms:

populate_media cdrom udf,iso9660 user,noauto $CDDEVICES

please change these lines to something like that:

populate_media cdrom udf,iso9660 user,noauto,utf8 $CDDEVICES

Attached please find the '50fstab_removable_media_entries' file I'm using for my Feisty. It doesn't seem to change much between versions, so maybe it will also suit in Gutsy?
