The command given was:
dd if=cdrom/Corel/Boot/boot1440.img of=dev/fd0
Shouldn't it have been:
dd if=/cdrom/Corel/Boot/boot1440.img of=/dev/fd0

And with the cdrom mounted to cdrom. A program could easily detect if
cdrom/Corel/Boot/boot1440.img and dev/fd0 exist in the current directory
and gently exit if they don't (apparently the root was used so perhaps the
CD wasn't mounted?)

And yes I know that /dev/fd0 is A:

The key right of �/� <g>, or the lower one to the left of Enter (or Return
on old keyboards - does anyone know why they changed this one?) if I hold
down shift (otherwise it's a "'"). However I prefer the one on the numeric
keyboard (just as the "/" that's shift-7 otheriwse).
