Well my other commit just fixes the problem probable for these Dell
utiliti FAT partitions because they don't have a valid FAT16 string.
It could be still useful for the people who have a broken mkfs.ext2
which doestn't zero out the first 512 bytes of the partition, but did
had a real valid FAT partition.
And I think it shouldn't hurt to check first for ext2 and then FAT.
