All those NLS related stuff is built into the kernel - usually as
modules. So you _cannot_ just install those kernel modules "on the fly".

Some linux .config file (used for the kernel build) might contain
CONFIG_NLS=y
CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT="utf8"
CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_437=m
CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_737=m
...
Which results to nls kernel modules in e.g.
lib/modules/2.6.32.11-svn21605/kernel/fs/nls/

Note - check for subpath "2.6.32.11-svn21605" above - it might be
different.
Strange is that utf8 seems to be not build-in in your kernel version.
(Should be the default for years)

Cheers, Günter
