>Add warning about Letter Assigners in DOS and Windows
That's because of my bug report. I used Letter Assinger v1.2.0 by Vadim Burtyansky and tried formatting a partition from Win98. The wrong partition was about to be formatted. Mr. Loew investigated and found the bug in the Letter Assigner, not RFORMAT.

I saw many partitioning programs do that. Most ask for confirmation, some don't. It's great that you know how to edit partitioning table and FAT parameters by hand, but why waste time when there are tools that offers (probably) the same flexibility?
For partitioning, I use Ranish Partition Manager. RPM and RFORMAT are the best partitioning/formatting tools by far. Too bad I have to use a boot stick to run them. And too bad nobody wrote something as capable as RPM for Linux. mkfs.vfat comes close to RFORMAT, but none of the partitioning tools are as capable as RPM.

I don't care. I don't have UEFI.
