.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility creates a FAT12, FAT16, or FAT32 file system on device
|
|
.Ar special ,
|
|
using
|
|
.Xr disktab 5
|
|
entry
|
|
.Ar disktype
|
|
to determine geometry, if required.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follow:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Fl N
|
|
Don't create a file system: just print out parameters.
|
|
.It Fl B Ar boot
|
|
Get bootstrap from file.
|
|
.It Fl F Ar FAT-type
|
|
FAT type (one of 12, 16, or 32).
|
|
.It Fl I Ar volid
|
|
Volume ID.
|
|
.It Fl L Ar label
|
|
Volume label (up to 11 characters). The label should consist of
|
|
only those characters permitted in regular DOS (8+3) filenames.
|
|
.It Fl O Ar OEM
|
|
OEM string (up to 8 characters). The default is
|
|
"BSD 4.4".
|
|
.It Fl S Ar sector-size
|
|
Number of bytes per sector. Acceptable values are powers of 2
|
|
in the range 128 through 32768.
|
|
.It Fl a Ar FAT-size
|
|
Number of sectors per FAT.
|
|
.It Fl b Ar block-size.
|
|
File system block size (bytes per cluster). This should resolve to an
|
|
acceptable number of sectors per cluster (see below).
|
|
.It Fl c Ar cluster-size
|
|
Sectors per cluster. Acceptable values are powers of 2 in the range
|
|
1 through 128.
|
|
.It Fl e Ar dirents
|
|
Number of root directory entries (FAT12 and FAT16 only).
|
|
.It Fl f Ar format
|
|
Specify a standard (floppy disk) format. The eight standard formats
|
|
are (capacities in kilobytes): 160, 180, 320, 360, 720, 1200, 1440,
|
|
2880.
|
|
.It Fl h Ar heads
|
|
Number of drive heads.
|
|
.It Fl i Ar info
|
|
Location of the file system info sector (FAT32 only).
|
|
A value of 0xffff signifies no info sector.
|
|
.It Fl k Ar backup
|
|
Location of the backup boot sector (FAT32 only). A value
|
|
of 0xffff signifies no backup sector.
|
|
.It Fl m Ar media
|
|
Media descriptor (acceptable range 0xf0 to 0xff).
|
|
.It Fl n Ar FATs
|
|
Number of FATs. Acceptable values are 1 to 16 inclusive. The default
|
|
is 2.
|
|
.It Fl o Ar hidden
|
|
Number of hidden sectors.
|
|
.It Fl r Ar reserved
|
|
Number of reserved sectors.
|
|
.It Fl s Ar total
|
|
File system size.
|
|
.It Fl u Ar track-size
|
|
Number of sectors per track.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh NOTES
|
|
FAT file system parameters occupy a "Boot Sector BPB (BIOS Parameter
|
|
Block)" in the first of the "reserved" sectors which precede the actual
|
|
file system. For reference purposes, this structure is presented
|
|
below.
