Anybody got the right mkdosfs/mkfs.vfat parameters (Linux)?

The wiki page LambdaCalculus referenced mentions this issue
--- Quote ---Note - there is a problem with mkfs.vfat on disks over 30GB in size. We recommend mtools format utility instead.

Oops. Sorry.

Now, there's a problem left, and that is that after mount my 80 GB mformat made FAT32 filesystem is seen like this:
~(pls)23% df -h /mnt/ipod
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdi2             298G   22G  276G   8% /mnt/ipod

I think my party might not yet be over. Rockbox works, but I figure this will probably blow up as I put more data on this.

GodEater:
Right, I want to see :

dmesg output from when you connect your ipod via usb.

Output from fdisk -l

Then we'll see what's what.

The wiki has mformat instructions, and they are different from this... I think you also need -M 2048 at least
