# mkfs.fat
> Create an MS-DOS filesystem inside a partition.
> More information: <https://manned.org/mkfs.fat>.
- Create a fat filesystem inside partition 1 on device b (`sdb1`):
`mkfs.fat {{/dev/sdb1}}`
- Create filesystem with a volume-name:
`mkfs.fat -n {{volume_name}} {{/dev/sdb1}}`
- Create filesystem with a volume-id:
`mkfs.fat -i {{volume_id}} {{/dev/sdb1}}`
- Use 5 instead of 2 file allocation tables:
`mkfs.fat -f 5 {{/dev/sdb1}}`
