There should be a line similar to this:

  /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0

Just after the "noauto", append the iocharset option, so that the line looks
like this.

/dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 ro,user,noauto,iocharset=utf8  0       0

Colin, since we have a mostly complete UTF-8 system now, and Windows now uses
UTF-8 by default, too, can we fix this in the installer so that new
installations get it?
