https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=290857 --- Comment #6 from Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> --- (In reply to Marek Zarychta from comment #1) > newfs_msdos -c 8 -F 32 /device/path The default ESP partition is 100MB and newfs_msdos won't create a fat32 filesystem: root@framework:/home/emaste # newfs_msdos -F32 -c8 md0 newfs_msdos: cannot get number of sectors per track: Operation not supported newfs_msdos: cannot get number of heads: Operation not supported newfs_msdos: 25546 clusters too few clusters for FAT32, need 65525 It succeeds with -c1 or -c2. As a point of comparison I'm looking at a Windows 10 VM, which has a 100MB FAT32 ESP. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
