Correct me if I am wrong. But how do you format a partition with out a filesystem?  The format can't happen unless it knows what filesystem to partion to.

 The filesystem (FFS/PFS/SFS etc) could have been installed on another drive (HD or floppy) and then got used for formatting the new one.
 
 But you`re right,the disks icon should show up..
