According to "Microsoft FAT Specification, August 30 2005":

  • BS_FilSysTyp: This string is informational only and does not determine the FAT type.
  • The FAT type is determined solely by the count of clusters on the volume.

U-Boot's function read_bootsectandvi() uses the field BS_FilSysTyp to determine the FAT type.
