How can one format a pen drive?
Just as you would any other drive with mkfs, but don't do it. Leave it
as DOS formatted for comptability with Windows machines.
The command that I cited before works fine and the compatibility with
MS Windows machines is not lost.

It is if you format it as a ext2 or ext3 drive.
And both of these will result in premature wearout.

I've never used it, but there is a filesystem made specially for flash
devices, JFFS2. It's available in the standard kernel. Google has more
details.
