Sorry, I didn't answer you (I've composed message, but forgot to send it), 
but i've tried to do as you've said. See below...

First time you've send this  didn't run because i put -f rather than -F. (stupid...)

Now all went well, file system was created. But error pops out again!!!! (soon I will be crying:-)) 
By the way, my FS is native to linux e2fs, not umsdos or [v]fat. I have only vfat

So we've came to the beginning :).
