Try this: os9 format -t4340 "Phil.dsk"
It will make and format an OS9 virtual disk with the following attributes:
Format Summary
--------------
Geometry Data:
      Cylinders: 4340
          Heads: 1
  Sectors/track: 18
    Sector size: 256
Logical Data:
  Total sectors: 78120
  Size in bytes: 19998720
   Cluster size: 1
I use a similar command (in a custom makefile) to create a 131mb Nitros9
Disk that I use on my SDC
$(OS9FORMAT) -t28425 -q $@ -n"NitrOS-9/$(CPU) Level $(LEVEL)"
