mkfs.fat:tldr:f508c
The command "mkfs.fat -i ${volume_id} ${-dev-sdb1}" is used to create a File Allocation Table (FAT) file system on a specific device or partition.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
"mkfs.fat": This is the command to create a FAT file system.
-
"-i ${volume_id}": This option is used to specify a volume ID for the file system. The variable "${volume_id}" should be replaced with the desired volume ID.
-
"${-dev-sdb1}": This specifies the device or partition on which the FAT file system will be created. The variable "${-dev-sdb1}" should be replaced with the actual device name or partition.
To use this command, you would need to replace "${volume_id}" with a desired volume ID, and "${-dev-sdb1}" with the actual device or partition name you want to format as FAT.
