problem: Format the second partition as FAT32 (USB stick)
I have the following 2 partitions on my USB stick.
Quote:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 1 14 13857 e W95 FAT16 (LBA)
/dev/sdb2 15 1014 992000 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
I want to format the /dev/sdb2 as FAT32.
Now when I run:
Code:
mkfs -t vfat -F 32 /dev/sdb2
I get the following error: mkfs.vfat: no such file or directory.
Anyone here who might know what I'm doing wrong?

Not sure, maybe you have to install an additional package. Have you searched for mkfs.vfat with apt-file?
