Description

FAT and DOS-style filesystems can be created, checked, or repaired with command-line utilities from the Git version. It is useful for USB drives, EFI partitions, disk images, and legacy compatibility work.

Filesystem tools can destroy or alter data when pointed at the wrong device. Confirm target paths, keep backups, and avoid running repair commands blindly.

How to run

mkfs.fat

Commands: mkfs.fat
