Is there any command issued from the console that will tell me the format of my SD and CF cards? I 'm wondering if my various cards are FAT, MS-DOS, or EXT2.
I was unable to find an answer to this question by searching the forums and google, so perhaps someone might enlighten me. Thanks!

If they're mounted, then you can issue the 'mount' command and it'll tell you what they are mounted as. You can use fdisk to tell yo uthe partition type, but this need not match the actual fs type afaik.

Obviously fsck and mount are able to determine the fs type automagically (most of the time) so perhaps look into what they do,
