fat32 Error: Unknown file system type |

Hi all,
kernel=2.4.9-e.34
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 2.1 (Panama)
GNU Parted 1.4.16
The disk that I have to work on is IDE attached by USB (that's why sde)
I have to label, create a partition and format in fat32 a new disk by a script.
The problem is that when I try to do it I get this error:
# parted /dev/sde mklabel msdos mkpartfs primary
FAT32
0 76319
Error: Unknown file system type.
# parted /dev/sde mklabel msdos mkpartfs primary
fat32
0 76319
Error: Unknown file system type.
# parted /dev/sde mklabel msdos mkpartfs primary
fat
0 76319
Warning: The filesystem is going to be too big for FAT16, so FAT32 will
be used. This is not compatible with MS-DOS, early versions of
MS-Windows 95
and Windows NT. If you use these operating systems, then select
cancel, and create a smaller partition. If you only use Linux,
BSD, MS Windows 98
and/or MS Windows 95 B, then select OK.
OK Cancel ?
If I type OK it works, but in this way I can't put it in a unattended script.
Thanks in advance
