|

|
|
||
|
> Creates an MS-DOS filesystem inside a partition.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Create a.vfat filesystem inside partition 1 on device b (`sdb1`):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`mkfs.vfat {{/dev/sdb1}}`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Create filesystem with a volume-name:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`mkfs.vfat -n {{volume-name}} {{/dev/sdb1}}`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Create filesystem with a volume-id:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`mkfs.vfat -i {{volume-id}} {{/dev/sdb1}}`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Use 5 instead of 2 file allocation tables:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`mkfs.vfat -f 5 {{/dev/sdb1}}`
