Remove the part mentioning the need of sysutils/cd9660_unicode to

correctly display multibyte characters on some ISO 9660 CDs; inform the
user about the -C option of mount_cd9660 and the need of cd9660_iconv.ko

way. Disks with certain ISO 9660 extensions might behave
oddly, however. For example, Joliet disks store all filenames
in two-byte Unicode characters. The FreeBSD kernel does not
speak Unicode (yet!), so non-English characters show up as
question marks. (The FreeBSD
CD9660 driver includes hooks to load an appropriate Unicode
conversion table on the fly. Modules for some of the common
encodings are available via the
<filename role="package">sysutils/cd9660_unicode</filename> port.)</para>
speak Unicode, but the &os; CD9660 driver is able to convert
Unicode characters on the fly. If some non-English characters
show up as question marks you will need to specify the local
charset you use with the <option>-C</option> option. For more
information, consult the &man.mount.cd9660.8; manual
page.</para>
<note>
<para>To be able to do this character conversion with the help
of the <option>-C</option> option, the kernel will require
the <filename>cd9660_iconv.ko</filename> module to be
loaded. This can be done either by adding this line to
<filename>loader.conf</filename>:</para>
<programlisting>cd9660_iconv_load="YES"</programlisting>

module with &man.kldload.8;.</para>
