   I really don't know.   
   I thought that either setting the partition a&s F32 while creating   
   it or converting it as F32 afterwards would make it readable for   
   MiNT, but unfortunately not. I had to convert it using the right   
   command under MiNT.   
   Maybe might I make 2 partitions on a spare drive, one just created   
   as F32 and the second converted under MiNT, then save the MBR, FAT   
   and DIR entries into a file and send it to you ?   
   Unless someone near you can create the partitions and bring you the   
   drive so you can explore it ?
