    I have the following 2 partitions on my USB stick.
    I want to format the /dev/sdb2 as FAT32.
    Now when I run:
    Code:
    mkfs -t vfat -F 32 /dev/sdb2
    I get the following error: mkfs.vfat: no such file or directory.

    Anyone here who might know what I'm doing wrong?

    Not sure, maybe you have to install an additional package. Have you searched for mkfs.vfat with apt-file?
