mount: you must specify the filesystem type
probably wanted to mkdosfs -F32 /dev/sdc1 .
/dev/sdc1) and the command i tried (mkdosfs -I -F32 -n slack -v
/dev/sdc) is the -I option which is requested when the disk is not
empty.
I know mkdosfs does work properly on full disk with -I option because I
always do that way with floppies.
If you're going to run mkdosfs on /dev/sdc, you would need to mount /dev/sdc *not* /dev/sdc1!
