mkdosfs on powerpc?

From: Steven Scholz <hidden>

Hi there,


I need to format a PCMCIA disk with VFAT using our MPC8xx board.

Is someone using mkdosfs on a powerpc platform?
Do I have to patch the original source somehow?

Thanks,

Steven

Hi Steven,
Is someone using mkdosfs on a powerpc platform?
Yes, like you, for formatting a CF-Card.

Do I have to patch the original source somehow?
I can crosscompile and run dosfstools-2.8
out of the box.

Best regards.

I tried that as well. It works fine.

Cheers,
