OK SO I have 3 hard drives that i am dealing with.
/dev/hda Reiserfs (Slackware)
/dev/hdb (I want formatted fat32 so Windows and Linux may access it)
/dev/hdc NTFS (XP)
OK... SO I use cfdisk and make one big fat32 partition
output from # fdisk -l /dev/hdb
Code:
Disk /dev/hdb: 120.0 GB, 120034123776 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 14593 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdb1 1 14593 117218241 1b Hidden W95 FAT32
The problem I run into is when I try # mkfs /dev/hdb1 -t vfat
I get
Code:
mkfs.vfat: No such file or directory
# mkfs -V output:
Code:
mkfs from util-linux-2.12
I can't seem to figure out why mkfs doesn't work. Is there something I am doing wrong, or do you know of something else I should try?
