I use zh_CN.GBK as a tentative solution, It works but not as perfectly as I expected. If I use zh_CN.UTF-8, almost all of the Chinese characters in the fat32 partition can't be displayed correctly when mounted. BTW, is there any plan the improve UTF-8 support in BSD community? 2007/9/19, Ivan Voras <ivoras@freebsd.org>: > ronggui wrote: > > > In terms of UTF-8 support, Linux seems better than FreeBSD.
