I had tried and I can create a partition in fat32 but I don't know how
to format it because if I use gparted or qtparte the program go in block
and the system say me that the partition has an unknown filesystem!

Please help Me!

Boot from a bootable CD with Gparted on it. Rescuse CD of live Gparted.

I don't understand the thing about "go in block", but if you have
partitioned a disk, you can just use mkfs to make a vfat FS:
mkfs -t vfat -F 32 <device>

or use mkdosfs (which is called by "mkfs -t vfat"):
mkdosfs -F 32 <device>

Read the finely printed manual.

If you want to access the partition from another OS, make sure the
partition type is appropriate, "c" (Win95 FAT32 (LBA)) IIRC, or else the
OS won't understand you.
