With the command diskpart as in the link, I tried with fat32 and it works fine.

  • list disk
  • select disk 1
  • clean
  • create partition primary
  • active
  • format fs=fat32 quick
  • assign
  • exit

You can use the command

xcopy source:*.* /S/E/F destination:\

I tried in Ubuntu, can it be a problem with the BIOS boot or UEFI? – Umpa – 2014-07-02T08:50:41.810
