newfs_msdos - is their an equivalent app with GUI ?

2006-07-06 Thread Didier Tickell

Hi

I'm so un-terminal savy - Is there
an app with a GUI that does FAT formatting
on macs, like the newfs_msdos command you made ?

Thanks for your time

The solution to this problem is not, of course, to start slapping GUI
wrappers around newfs_msdos, but to read about newfs_msdos and become
acquainted with its options.

You don't *have* to be ``un-terminal savy'', whatever that means.

Have you tried firing up a terminal, and typing:

% man newfs_msdos

The manpages are a huge wealth of information, and there are so many
tools that have neat command-line options that it would be a terrible
waste to miss them all because you didn't check the manpages :)

If this is on a Mac, have you tried the
Mac lists/forums?

There's a chance you'll get an answer
from someone who uses both Macs and FreeBSD,
but it's no so likely to happen as, say, you
getting a lot of RTFM pointers. ;-)
