That's funny. The theoretical limit for FAT32 volumes is 2TB. Did you use the 
"-F 32" parameter for mkfs.vfat/mkdosfs? You need to explicitly specify the 
FAT size if you're formatting FAT32 volumes. If you don't specify it, the 
system will default to FAT16, which only has a limit of 2GB.

Also, don't forget to select the correct partition type for FAT32 on FDISK.
