fat32 partition creation

[SpookySystems]

Hi !
Is it possible to turn some ext3 free space into fat32 space? If it is possible how?
Thanks!

The easiest way is by using qtparted to resize (if necessary), wipe the existing partition and turn it into a fat32 partition.

The command for creating a FAT32 filesystem is something like this:

/sbin/mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/hdb2

I don't know if you have to set the partition type with fdisk or a similar partition manipulation program first. And of course you need to do the usual create a mount point and do a mount command.
