You'll have to be exact. I don't recognize that as a reference
to an error message that I can recognize.

Cause WHAT? Message? Version? Sizes? Circumstances?

mke2fs writes small blocks, but it DOES write outside the
partition boundary in a binary search for its limits. As
such it would be normal to expect that ext2fs causes
warnings abiut something being out of range, but that would not
be  "request too big". Grep in the code for the _exact_ message
you have seen and tell me about it.
