Three ways:
1)Run FDISK, and look at the partition information.
2)Boot MS-DOS 6.22 (or any other DOS without FAT32 support) and see
  if you can access that partition. (note - if you cant access it,
  it doesnt necessarily means its FAT32. Could be compressed or
  encrypted.)
3)Just do a "dir" and see if the partition is bigger then 2G.
  (note: include both free space and used space when calculating.
   also, the partition may be a FAT32 and still be smaller then 2G.
   but if its bigger, its FAT32 for sure.)
