Copying the affected files to a HFS+ drive using the command “cp” works fine. This issue is hard to solve in a pretty way, but you should still be able to access these files when using the Terminal. This is because Finder apparently expects all filenames to appear in unicode decomposed form, while NTFS allows both composed and decomposed form filenames. Files with filenames created in Windows containing international characters with accents, umlauts and similar dots and lines, or filenames with korean characters might seem unreadable in the Finder.Using the command line utility bless (see “man bless” for more information).Intel users only: Install the rEFIt boot manager for better control of the boot process.
