It also seems, from the FAT article, that FAT32 should be fine with DOS, but there's a bugger in my memory saying there were some issues. Basically, FAT16/32 is an hdd size issue.

Yep. Perfect Midget! k:

FAT 16 has problems handling more than 3.8 or something (short under 4) GB of HDD size.
E.g. you have a 5 GB HDD then FAT 16 can only handle the above number. The rest stays unused or even untouched.
I'm not quite sure if could get around that by partitioning. So partitioning a 5 GB drive into 2x 2,5 GB or something like that.
