The disks you speak of are actually a 2 MB capacity--its just that
when you format them, the formatting data takes some space and all you have
left is 1.44 MB of disk space.
By the same token, 2.88 MB floppy disks are actually 4 MB in raw
capacity.
So just use the standard "1.44 MB" floppy disks you are familiar
with and you'll be fine.
