I'm sure. I get the same results trying to create a 1720k.

My mistake. ( I haven't looked at this procedure in a loooong while). I have just successful in creating a 1722 by:
# fdcontrol -f 1722 /dev/fd0 # fdformat fd0 Format 1722K floppy `/dev/fd0'? (y/n): y Processing VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV done.
Not sure about a 1680:
# fdcontrol -v -f 1680 /dev/fd0 fdcontrol: unknown format 1680 KB for drive type 1.44M
Hope this helps a bit.
