hello,
on os2009.06, i mount a key containing milax, and i want to re-format it with pcfs:
he...@delljm:~$ rmformat -l
Looking for devices...
     1. Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0
        Physical Node: /p...@0,0/pci1028,1...@1d,7/stor...@5/d...@0,0
        Connected Device: USB      Flash Disk       1100
        Device Type: Removable
        Bus: USB
        Size: 956.0 MB
        Label: <None>

it fails:
he...@delljm:~$ pfexec mkfs -F pcfs -o b=mh,fat=32 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2:c
No such logical drive (missing extended partition entry)

what's the meaning of this error?

if i use format:
pfexec format /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0
selecting /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0
[disk formatted]

          1       Active    Solaris2          1   955     955    100

i deleted the solaris2 partition, and re-create a fat32 one.
Then it works:
he...@delljm:~$ pfexec mkfs -F pcfs -o b=mh,fat=32 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0:c
Construct a new FAT file system on /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0:c: (y/n)? y
he...@delljm:~$ fstyp /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0
unknown_fstyp (no matches)
but why fstyp displays "unknown" type?

thanks in advance,

gerard
