The device has fdisk, so it should be doable. But I'm no expert, I need to follow a guide to avoid bricking my device by formatting the wrong things.

I'd like to take advantage of the 64 GB storage before I leave for holidays.

Thanks in advance, sorry if I missed a tutorial.
What is "promet filesystem" ?

fdisk is for partition editing and mkfs command is for creating file system on the partition.
Code:
mkfs.bfs
mkfs.btrfs
mkfs.cramfs
mkfs.ext2
mkfs.ext3
mkfs.ext4
mkfs.ext4dev
mkfs.fat
mkfs.minix
mkfs.msdos
mkfs.vfat
for a flash drive you should use non journaling fs, like ext2, brtfs (it auto detects the flash drive), fat32+, exfat.
