I think you have to have the microsoft joliet extensions enabled in you kernel in order for linux to see the long filenames. I once had a maximum linux cd that would display long filenames. Then I recompiled the kernel without the microsoft joliet extensions, and the same cd truncated the filenames. When I recompiled with the joliet extensions, things went back to normal. --- Ken Weingold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why are the filenames that I access on a mounted DOS > partition > shortened like you would see from within DOS?
