  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
