I used sfdisk. I hadn't known about this utility, even though it is available as standard on all distros. Now, I use this every time I get a new flash disk to alter disk geometry.
I recreated the CHS with 32 sectors. As I understand, having 32 sectors is most efficient.
As I want to use this stick everywhere, I only have a single fat16 partition.
PS: Don't do this to traditional disks :( I learnt this the hard way.
