do you also have a floppy drive in a powerpc machine?  if so take a
1.44MB floppy you don't care about stick it in the drive and run:

superformat --superverify /dev/fd0

you can drop the superverify i suppose.  if it fails its broken (or
your floppy is crap) try it on a known good floppy if possible...
