Creating FatXX partition with fdisk

[Arcady Genkin <genkin@sympatico.ca>]

I was putting a new computer together today for a friend. I needed to
partition a brand-new HD, and because I hate MSDOS's fdisk, I figured
I'd use Linux's rescue disk with fdisk.

Anyhow, I created the partitions alright, but can I create the file
system on them? Can I format a fat32 partition from linux? I was
stuck, and had to use DOS's format. :(

Thanks for any recommendation!
