Forwarded from guix-devel. Confirmed with Linux-libre 3.16.3 and eudev 1.9 (Guix commit de1c158.)

--- Begin Message ---While playing with standalone Guix, I found that I was unable to mount a FAT-formatted USB drive. The kernel generated the following error message: FAT-fs (sdb1): IO charset iso8859-1 not found Loading the nls_iso8859_1 kernel module fixes the problem. Isn't there normally some mechanism for automatically loading such modules? On my extremely simple home-built YeeLoong system, based on Cross [GNU/]Linux From Scratch, and using a recent linux-libre 3.14.13 kernel that also makes nls_iso8859_1 a module, somehow the module is loaded automatically. I confess I'm rather ignorant of how this is supposed to work on modern systems, but I vaguely recall that this is udev's job. Is that right? Regards, Mark
