As far as I am aware then you can not use Linux to format these tapes, this may of course depend on what tape drive you are using, I used a dos based tape formatting program to do my tapes with, I think you can format them using dosemu but I'm not sure. But checkout the ftape howto that may answer you question better than I can.
