Emacs should try to figure out what to do with existing files:
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/Text-and-Binary.htmlhttp://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/Recognize-Coding.html#Recognize-Coding
You can tell it never to try CR+LF on certain filesystems:
(add-untranslated-filesystem "Z:")
It also may need some help with newly-created files:
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system iso-8859-1-unix)
