formatting mod

[Kerstin Hoef-Emden <Kerstin.Hoef-Emden@Uni-Koeln.DE>]

Hi,

this question might sound quite stupid, but: How to format an MOD of
640MB as superfloppy with dos filesystem? 

Until now I only needed ext2fs. I used fdisk (fdisk -b2048 /dev/sdc),
deleted the partition, wrote the new data to the disk and could
lateron install an ext2fs with "ext2fs -b2048 /dev/sdc".

I tried it now the same way with mkdosfs and it refuses to do so. What
is the trick? With partitions on the MOD, the drive designations of the
OS/2 system, with which the data have to be exchanged, will be messed
up.


Regards,

Kerstin
