Within that box a single file, or part of a file can be saved. Disks have a set number of sectors, and sectors have a specified data size typically 512 bytes ( REF). VFAT is used by default on both Windows 7, and Ubuntu 14.04 when creating FAT32 partitions.Īllocation size, also called cluster size is method of grouping sectors within a partition sectors make up a cluster. The short name is made from the first six characters of the long filename, a tilde, and a number ( REF). VFAT accomplishes this 2nd name by splitting the long name across directories in locations that have a max folder limit you could end up severely limiting the number of files you can create in that directory ( REF). If the file is renamed while accessed under FAT support then the long name is lost ( REF). Files saved to a VFAT partition will have 2 filenames: a short name for being read under FAT, and a long name for being read under VFAT ( REF). VFAT is most commonly misused to refer to FAT32, but it can be applied to any version of FAT. VFAT is an extension for FAT filesystem that adds support for long filenames ( REF) systems that don't support VFAT but do support the underlying version of FAT will be able to read the partition using the underlying version of FAT ( REF). You will need to substitute /dev/DISKANDPARTITION for the correct device and partition (something like /dev/sdb1). Most disks uses 512 bytes sector sizes with the exception of the modern 4K disks ( REF). If you wish to adjust the size just replace "16" with the required number. This will format the entire device as VFAT32 with a 4096 byte allocation size which is commonly used by Windows. In your terminal type " sudo mkdosfs /dev/DISKANDPARTITION -s 16 -F 32".
You should check to see what allocation size you use when doing a format with Windows, and then use the same allocation size when formatting with Ubuntu.
Perhaps your TV doesn't like the allocation size? If that's not it then I don't know :P. For example Windows XP has limitations on cluster size, number of clusters, and partition size when booting from FAT32 partitions (REF). I'm guessing your TV's OS has additional requirements beyond simply FAT32.
