The format naming conventions has me confused, but I am inferring from documents like this (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107483) one that "FAT32" is equivalent to "MS-DOS".

One way to create an "MS-DOS" formatted disk image is using 'hdiutil'. For example, to create an image file called "DMGname" for a volume of "n" megabytes called "Somename", enter this in a 'Terminal.app" window:

hdiutil create -megabytes n -fs MS-DOS -volname Somename -o /path/to/DMGname
There are many other options for 'hdiutil' - type 'man hdiutil' to see the documentation.
