cygwin mkfs.msdos: command not found

zgintasz · 10-31-2012, 05:00 AM

Hello,

I don't really know, if I posted in right place, but please help someone. I'm using cygwin, but when I type mkfs.msdos myos.img
I get this:
-bash: mkfs.msdos: command not found

Maybe I haven't got installed required package? I tried to search for dosfstools in installation, but It doesn't find anything.

Thanks, have nice day.

If 'echo $PATH' doesn't include the directory the binaries reside in maybe prefix the path?
Else does the directory the binaries reside in show any mk*fs*.exe files?
If for example it's got a "mkfs.exe" you could try 'mkfs.exe --help', maybe it accepts "-t msdos".
