Usage: $ME [-h|--help] [-f|--fat32] [-c|--clone IMG] SIZE NAME

$ME creates a single partition FAT (CHS)
filesystem, already formated and outputs the
the dosbox imgmount and the linux mount commands.
FAT 16 is the default (dosbox readable).

The size will be restricted between ≃35MB and ≃1GB
for FAT16 and between ≃35MB and ≃7.84GB for FAT32.
Do not be surprised if a large drive gives you less
than expected space in the OS, because the cluster
size limits that enable that extra space, make the
OS waste space on larger drives because all files
must occupy at least 1 cluster, so if you have many
small files (like in the OS) it's better to use a
small drive just for it.

You can use the strings 'MIN' and 'MAX' as size.
You can use a human readable suffix for the SIZE
in SI or IEC-I standards. SI is the modern hd size
standard with powers of 10 and IEC-I is the older
hd size standard with powers of two. Bytes will be
assumed if no suffix is given.

SI    goes KB,  MB,  GB,  TB...
IEC-I goes KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB...

Success - FAT32 is only used for booting in dosbox

mount as c (3 is d) for boot in dosbox:

imgmount 2 "$BASE" -size 512,$SEC,$HEA,$CYL -nofs

mount in linux, doesn't set DOS-unique attributes if written to:

udisksctl loop-setup -f "$BASE"

unmount in linux with DEV the device of the previous command:

udisksctl unmount -b "DEVp1"

clone/shrink/expand image: use the -c flag, it preserves attributes
