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