   Right - this was a "known" problem awhile back. Basically, you'll need to
use the '-e' switch and then edit this to correct the 'rpm' and 'interleave'.
After this has been done and the label updated, you should be able to write
out the new bootblocks as you tried to do above.
   This was fixed a few months ago.
