i need help. How do i mkfs a file system? - What are the requirements

i'm actually a beginner in Solaris or perhaps in Unix

...this is not a homework, we're just self-studying solaris with my gruop ^_^

i'm getting a lot of errors T_T,

mkfs -F <fstype> c0d0?

i don't know what those c0d0's stand for, are they devices?

if they are, which is the device for a hard disk or for disk drives and where could i find these devices?> which directory... pls help t.y.

and also if i specify <fstype> ->pcfs,ufs,etc. is there any difference in inputting the arguments for mkfs?

and lastly, i would be very thankful if anyone could show how to simply implement that mkfs on a floppy drive, this would give me an idea how mkfs is implemented.
