There are two partitioning rules, FDISK and SFD, for removable media. It can be selected with an argument. The FDISK format is recommended for the most case. This function currently <em>does not support multiple partition</em>, so that existing partitions on the physical dirve will be deleted and re-created a new partition occupies entire disk space.</p> <p>The FAT sub-type, FAT12/FAT16/FAT32, is determined by number of clusters on the drive and nothing else, according to the FAT specification issued by Microsoft. Thus which FAT sub-type is selected, is depends on the volume size and the specified cluster size. The cluster size affects performance of the file system and large cluster increases the performance.</p> </div> <div class="para"> <h4>QuickInfo</h4> <p>Available when <tt>_FS_READOLNY == 0</tt> and <tt>_USE_MKFS == 1</tt>.</p> </div> <p class="foot"><a href="../00index_e.html">Return</a></p> </body> </html>
