Sometimes "long filename" recognition doesn't work (also on 5.x), so you
must use a command line switch / argument to mount_msdosfs.
-o options
Use the specified mount options, as described in mount(8). The
following MSDOS file system-specific options are available:
longnames
Force Windows 95 long filenames to be visible.
shortnames
Force only the old MS-DOS 8.3 style filenames to be
visi-

nowin95
Completely ignore Windows 95 extended file information.
