Thanks kp.

Now I understand what Andrew meant!  -r refers to the number of directory
entries permitted (like inodes, I guess). From the man page:

    -r root-dir-entries
    Select the number of entries available in the root directory.
    The default is 112 or 224 for floppies and 512 for hard disks.

From memory I would have expected 512 to be sufficient, but maybe not…
