Looking at the current code I see how it is created:
mke2fs -F -q -N $inodes -m 0 $floppy
-F is force even for odd geometry
-q is quiet
-N looks like it sets the number of inodes or the inode/byte ratio
-m sets the reserved-blocks-percentage
Nothing that looks 2.2 specific. However there may be some implicit
extensions if one creates an ext2 with current mke2fs and 2.2.x.
