How large is it? What is the purpose? Is it DOC?

Floppy disks are generally in FAT12 format.

The flash disk capacity is 16M. I want to convert it from FAT12 to FAT16 format, and then maybe there will be a way to make it into a boot disk. I’ve tried many times; with its current FAT12 format, no matter what I do, I just can’t make it into a boot disk.

Sheesh, aren’t USB flash drives directly FAT to begin with? I’m not clear on whether they’re divided into FAT16 and FAT12.
I suggest not doing this kind of thing under DOS.
If you want to do it, I can offer a direction (I absolutely don’t know whether this method works, and I don’t know whether it might damage the drive)
Use partitioning software, DISKMAN, MAGIC PATION, etc. to forcibly write the USB flash drive as FAT16, and see whether it works.

I also want to partition my USB flash drive, but I think the principle of a USB flash drive is different from that of a hard disk after all, so I don’t know whether the partitioning operation has anything to do with those differences…………
Still, I support someone else trying it first; if somebody tries it, then I’ll know too ^_^ (Brothers, don’t hit me—gentlemen use words, not fists.)
