The value - of this option should be the same as the character set of your locale, - adjusted in such a way that the kernel understands it. This works if the - relevant character set definition (found under File systems -> - Native Language Support) has been compiled into the kernel - or built as a module. The <quote>codepage</quote> option is also needed for - vfat and smbfs filesystems. It - should be set to the codepage number used under MS-DOS in your country.
