If omitted, \fBmkfs.fat\fP automatically determines the filesystem -size. -.SH OPTIONS -.IP \fB\-a\fP 4 -Normally, for any filesystem except very small ones, \fBmkfs.fat\fP will align -all the data structures to cluster size, to make sure that as long as the -partition is properly aligned, so will all the data structures in the -filesystem. This option disables alignment; this may provide a handful of -additional clusters of storage at the expense of a significant performance -degradation on RAIDs, flash media or large\-sector hard disks. -.IP "\fB \-A\fP" 4 -Use Atari variation of the MS\-DOS filesystem. This is default if -\fBmkfs.fat\fP is run on an Atari, then this option turns off Atari format. -There are some differences when using Atari format: If not directed -otherwise by the user, \fBmkfs.fat\fP will always use 2 sectors per cluster, -since GEMDOS doesn't like other values very much. It will also obey the -maximum number of sectors GEMDOS can handle. Larger filesystems are managed -by raising the logical sector size. Under Atari format, an Atari\-compatible -serial number for the filesystem is generated, and a 12 bit FAT is used only -for filesystems that have one of the usual floppy sizes (720k, 1.2M, 1.44M, -2.88M), a 16 bit FAT otherwise. This can be overridden with the \fB\-F\fP -option. Some PC\-specific boot sector fields aren't written, and a boot -message (option \fB\-m\fP) is ignored. -.IP "\fB\-b\fP \fISECTOR\-OF\-BACKUP\fP" 4 -Selects the location of the backup boot sector for FAT32. Default depends -on number of reserved sectors, but usually is sector 6. The backup must be -within the range of reserved sectors. -.IP \fB\-c\fP 4 -Check the device for bad blocks before creating the filesystem. -.IP \fB\-C\fP 4 -Create the file given as \fIDEVICE\fP on the command line, and write the -to\-be\-created filesystem to it. This can be used to create the new -filesystem in a file instead of on a real device, and to avoid using \fBdd\fP -in advance to create a file of appropriate size. With this option, the -\fIBLOCK\-COUNT\fP must be given, because otherwise the intended size of the -filesystem wouldn't be known. The file created is a sparse file, which -actually only contains the meta\-data areas (boot sector, FATs, and root -directory). The data portions won't be stored on the disk, but the file -nevertheless will have the correct size. The resulting file can be copied -later to a floppy disk or other device, or mounted through a loop device. -.IP "\fB\-D\fP \fIDRIVE\-NUMBER\fP" 4 -Specify the BIOS drive number to be stored in the FAT boot sector. This -value is usually 0x80 for hard disks and 0x00 for floppy devices or -partitions to be used for floppy emulation. -.IP "\fB\-f\fP \fINUMBER\-OF\-FATS\fP" 4 -Specify the number of file allocation tables in the filesystem. The default -is 2. -.IP "\fB\-F\fP \fIFAT\-SIZE\fP" 4 -Specifies the type of file allocation tables used (12, 16 or 32 bit). If -nothing is specified, \fBmkfs.fat\fP will automatically select between 12, 16 -and 32 bit, whatever fits better for the filesystem size. -.IP "\fB\-h\fP \fINUMBER\-OF\-HIDDEN\-SECTORS\fP" 4 -Select the number of hidden sectors in the volume. Apparently some digital -cameras get indigestion if you feed them a CF card without such hidden -sectors, this option allows you to satisfy them. -.IP "\fB\-i\fP \fIVOLUME\-ID\fP" 4 -Sets the volume ID of the newly created filesystem; \fIVOLUME\-ID\fP is a 32\-bit -hexadecimal number (for example, 2e24ec82). The default is a number which -depends on the filesystem creation time. -.IP \fB\-I\fP 4 -It is typical for fixed disk devices to be partitioned so, by default, you -are not permitted to create a filesystem across the entire device. -\fBmkfs.fat\fP will complain and tell you that it refuses to work. This is -different when using MO disks. One doesn't always need partitions on MO -disks. The filesystem can go directly to the whole disk. Under other OSes -this is known as the 'superfloppy' format. This switch will force -\fBmkfs.fat\fP to work properly. -.IP "\fB\-l\fP \fIFILENAME\fP" 4 -Read the bad blocks list from \fIFILENAME\fP. -.IP "\fB\-m\fP \fIMESSAGE\-FILE\fP" 4 -Sets the message the user receives on attempts to boot this filesystem -without having properly installed an operating system. The message file -must not exceed 418 bytes once line feeds have been converted to carriage -return\-line feed combinations, and tabs have been expanded. If the filename -is a hyphen (\-), the text is taken from standard input. -.IP "\fB\-M\fP \fIFAT\-MEDIA\-TYPE\fP" 4 -Specify the media type to be stored in the FAT boot sector. This value is -usually 0xF8 for hard disks and is 0xF0 or a value from 0xF9 to 0xFF for -floppies or partitions to be used for floppy emulation. -.IP "\fB\-n\fP \fIVOLUME\-NAME\fP" 4 -Sets the volume name (label) of the filesystem. The volume name can be up -to 11 characters long. The default is no label. -.IP "\fB\-r\fP \fIROOT\-DIR\-ENTRIES\fP" 4 -Select the number of entries available in the root directory. The default -is 112 or 224 for floppies and 512 for hard disks. -.IP "\fB\-R\fP \fINUMBER\-OF\-RESERVED\-SECTORS\fP" 4 -Select the number of reserved sectors. With FAT32 format at least 2 -reserved sectors are needed, the default is 32. Otherwise the default is 1 -(only the boot sector). -.IP "\fB\-s\fP \fISECTORS\-PER\-CLUSTER\fP" 4 -Specify the number of disk sectors per cluster. Must be a power of 2, -i.e. 1, 2, 4, 8, ... 128. -.IP "\fB\-S\fP \fILOGICAL\-SECTOR\-SIZE\fP" 4 -Specify the number of bytes per logical sector. Must be a power of 2 and -greater than or equal to 512, i.e. 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384, or -32768. -.IP \fB\-v\fP 4 -Verbose execution. -.IP \fB\-\-invariant\fP 4 -Use constants for normally randomly generated or time based data such as -volume ID and creation time. Multiple runs of \fBmkfs.fat\fP on the same -device create identical results with this option. Its main purpose is -testing \fBmkfs.fat\fP. -.IP \fB\-\-help\fP 4 -.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Display option summary and exit. -.SH BUGS -.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -\fBmkfs.fat\fP can not create boot\-able filesystems.
