 The National Language Support in the kernel is not satisfied with the
 modules you are trying to load. The FAT file systems now have an option
 with which you can set the codepage. I have in /etc/fstab the following:
 
 /dev/hda1               /dos/c          vfat  umask=002,gid=35,codepage=850
 
 This loads the 850 codepage used here in germany. Chack that you have the
 right modules in /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/fs/ and if not either
 recompile your kernel and configure your preferred code pages or give the right
 codepage option when mounting FAT partitions.
