what's the meaning of this error?
The ":c" syntax needs an fdisk partition tagged
with the correct fdisk partition id (for a FAT
filesystem); such a partition does not exist.
The error message seems to be a bit confusing...

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
Yep, now we have a fat32 tagged fdisk partition
and the :c syntax can be used.
he...@delljm:~$ fstyp /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0
unknown_fstyp (no matches)
but why fstyp displays "unknown" type?
Try fstyp /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p1
or fstyp /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p0:1
IIRC, for some reason fstyp /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p0:c
does not work.
ok, now:
$ fstyp /dev/dsk/c2t0d0p0
pcfs
$ pfexec mkfs -F pcfs -o b=mh,fat=32 /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0p0:c
No such logical drive (missing extended partition entry)
and format doesn't see the device:
$ pfexec format /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0p0
No disks found!
$ rmformat -l
Looking for devices...
1. Logical Node: /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0p0
Physical Node: /p...@0,0/pci1028,1...@1d,2/stor...@1/d...@0,0
Connected Device: USB2.0 (FS) FLASH DISK 1.00
Device Type: Removable
Bus: USB
Size: 1.0 GB
Label: <Unknown>
Access permissions: Medium is not write protected.
i'm very confused
PS: the reason i need to re-format my usb key is that i want to download
podcasts into it, but unfortunately, when i configure rhythmbox to save
new feeds on the key, a strange directory is created with an ampersand
at the end of the name:
$ pfiles 1080
...

This almost certainly means that you have a corrupted file system.
NOTIFY YOUR SYSTEM MANAGER.
The following directory is part of the cycle:
`/media/NO NAME/France Culture - Projection priv e/&&/France Culture
- Projection priv e'
rm: cannot remove directory `/media/NO NAME/France Inter -
Nonobstant/&': Directory not empty
thanks for your help,
