Here is a cute little trick.
Take a copy of HELP.COM, and rename it to FDISK.COM.
Open it up in a hex-editor
replace two instances of QBASIC.EXE with FDISK.EXE + space
replace one instance of /QHELP with /FPRMT
When you run FDISK then, it wont ask you for the confusing large disk support (which means 'FAT32 here', not 'Greater than 8.4 GB' .
It works a treat, and you don't need batch files! You can still get to the real fdisk by typing FDISK.EXE
