Atom, there's Fat12, Fat16 AND Fat32 with some complex minor or major alterations. Early SD cards came pre formated with FAT12, it's anyone's guess now days who's hiding what were in the bit tables nowdays. Though you can format the card yourself anyway you want. You can do bootable flash devices now using NTFS, EXT2 or whatever. There are no limits, the card is just a storage device, the formats of the data stored on it don't matter in the least bit. Except to the system accessing it. With bioses support booting to flash devices now, all bets are off as to what you'll find a flash device until you scan it.
Mongerson an 8, 16, or 32 bit microcontroller has no influence of any kind whatsever on the file system on the card in use. You can use an 8 bit micro to access a 32bit fat system, or a 32 bit micro to access a 12 bit FAT. You just gotta write the code to do it, just because it's an 8 bit micro only means that you need two use several instructions to deal with more than 8 bits.
