I'm trying to make a reiserfs partition.

# sfdisk -l /dev/hdg

Disk /dev/hdg: 30401 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 8225280 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

   Device Boot Start     End   #cyls   #blocks   Id  System
/dev/hdg1          0+  30400   30401- 244196001   83  Linux
/dev/hdg2          0       -       0         0    0  Empty
/dev/hdg3          0       -       0         0    0  Empty
/dev/hdg4          0       -       0         0    0  Empty

# mkreiserfs /dev/hdg1

<-------------mkreiserfs, 2002------------->
reiserfsprogs 3.x.1b

mkreiserfs: Guessing about desired format.. 
mkreiserfs: Kernel 2.4.19-ac4 is running.
reiserfs_create: can not create that small (0 blocks) filesystem



Anyone know how to get mkreiserfs to work?  Does it have a limit on partition size?
