defines the filesystem to be used in the image type. This only has an effect if the selected binary image type lets you choose a filesystem. For example, when selection ISO the resulting CD/DVD has always the filesystem ISO9660. When building HDD images for USB sticks, this is active. Note that it defaults to fat16 on all architectures except sparc where it defaults to ext4. Also note that if you choose fat16 and your resulting binary image gets bigger than 2GB, the binary filesystem automatically gets switched to fat32. defines the filesystem to be used in the image type. This only has an effect if the selected binary image type lets you choose a filesystem. For example, for the ISO image type the resulting CD/DVD always has the filesystem ISO9660. When building HDD images for USB sticks, multiple filesystem formats are supported, thus this becomes applicable to allow selection. Note that it defaults to 'fat32' on all architectures. Also note that if you choose 'fat16' and your resulting binary image gets bigger than 2GB, the binary filesystem automatically gets switched to 'fat32'.
