Creating an ext2 file system on FreeBSD?

Hi again. Is there a FreeBSD equivalent of Linux's 'mke2fs'? I want 
to create a disk image that is in ext2 format. On Linux, I would do:
   dd if=/dev/zero of=some.img bs=1M count=1 seek=1024
   /sbin/mke2fs -F -j some.img
Can I do something similar on FreeBSD?
