How to format VFAT on command line?

Greetings: On Suse 8.1, how to format a partition with VFAT or FAT32 using the CLI? I can do it with the Yast partitioner, but it is less convenient than just typing in a command. I think it should be mkfs.vfat, but this command isn't available, nor does it seem available onthe CDs. Thanks for input. Good day! -- _____________________ Christopher R.
