Ext2fs 1.5 plugin couldn't enable utf8 support

Post by *manof »

I've installed tc7.5a and Ext2+Reiser 1.5,I can use it view my ext3 volume,but display chinese (unicode) files name is incorrect.

I reading the plugin's readme.txt file,it said
To use UTF-8 encoding, write the following in ex2fs.ini:
utf8=true
I can not find ex2fs.ini,I only find one file named pluginst.inf.

I added utf8=true into pluginst.inf,don't work.

I created file ex2fs.ini and added utf8=true in it,don't work too.


Can you help me?

Thank you.

I've tried ex2fs stable and beta version,all do not work.

The beta version changlog:
Changelog:
2009-10-16 Added: Support for files >4GB on EXT2/EXT3 partitions
2009-10-16 Added: Support for Unicode file names (mainly for UTF-8 partitions)
2009-03-06 Added: Read EXT2/EXT3 partitions with 256 byte INODE size instead of 128
2008-04-15 Added: UTF-8 support, set utf8=true in ex2fs.ini under [Options])
Maybe the readme.txt is old and incorrect?

In the same directory as plugin, create a new file named "ex2fs.ini" and enter:

Code: Select all

[Options]
utf8=true

Success!:D

ex2fs.ini is in ex2fs\output directory.

Readme.txt need update.

Thank you very much
