formatting floppy for sbootmgr

[sonxEr77]

I'm trying to create a system boot manager using my floppy link . I get an error on dos prompt after hitting enter "can't figure out how many sector's/track for this diskette"

I'm trying to boot from USB B: floppy drive that i can configure the CD boot problem i'm experiencing for Slackware 11 iso d1 file...
Does this have to do with how i formatted the disk B:?

I shud format floppy before installing sbootmgr. I did format but when following steps to install, i get an error frm dos....
