I receive an error when trying to prepare the boot disk media.  I am using
pre-formatted disks and have first did the "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/fd0
bs=1k
count=1440" command to erase them. After I run the "mke2fs −m0 /dev/fd0"
command it returns this error:

mke2fs 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
mkfs.ext2: invalid blocks count - /dev/fdo


Any ideas or suggestions would be welcomed. I am currently using Debian
Etch.

Thank you,
Matthew Ozor
