Have you tried formatting your floppy as a 720K medium first? You might 
have to blind both holes of the diskette first (one for write permission, 
second for 720K selection).

Note however, that once a 1.44 diskette has been formatted as 1.44, 
reformatting it as 720K is quite risky. The tracks might not reform 
correctly, leading to subsequent data loss.
