[ale] ext2 on a 2G ramdisk can use only 1K as block size?

'mke2fs /dev/ram1' defaults to use 4K blocks for a 2G ramdisk. the mke2fs
succeeded, but the resultant fs can't be mounted. The error is " mount:
wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/ram1, or too many mounted
file systems"

I tried with 2k block size and was met with same errors. Anybody knows why?
I'd assume it won't be a problem for a regular disk partition, although I
don't have free disk partitions to verify. This is on CentOS 4.4/i386.
