When you are able to create the code that handles ext2 and FAT32, it will be obvious how to create the menu.
In other words: get a clue.

btw, it is unlikely that the user will need to choose this *at boot* time ...
Using FAT32 or EXT2 is a matter of what is available on the disk! read the partition table and find out what the computer has, then use it.
A human might have to choose between both when *formatting* the drive at system installation, but this is the job of the installer program, not of the kernel ...
