cannot format a fat filesystem, getting error "Both FATs appear to be corrupt. Giving up."
- by Nilesh
i am trying format an FAT (or FAT32) file system on my ubuntu system, but i am not able to format the device, each time i am getting the error "Both FATs appear to be corrupt. Giving up."
i have tried all options like
sudo dosfsck -t -a -w /dev/sdc1
sudo dosfsck -w -r -l -a -v -t /dev/sdc1
but each time the same message comes, can any one guide me…
