i create a vfat partition at sda7 using fdisk of linux
partition id is set to b
then i go to XP and format it but fail
maybe the reason is the partition is too big
it's more than 50G
What should I do? Thanks!
PS: the choice of vfat is that IMO vfat is more cross-platform

It might be best to leave the partition untouched and set it up from WXP disk
manager and then formatting it. WXP disk manager recognizes the parti

Why boot Windows when Linux can create fat partitions? Install
dosfstools and use the mkfs.vfat command.
BTW, Windows XP is unsu

for FAT16 or vfat yes. You need to format it as FAT32 or NTFS.

Long Wind's partition has type b, that is FAT32.
Now making a filesystem with mkfs.vfat /dev/sda7 should make it readable and
writable for WinXP.
Note that Linux and mkfs.vfat do not care about the partition type id.
Also mkfs.vfat is the same as
