David,
On your L-M cd you'll find a directory called /dos/utils/, in there are
a bunch of utilities to do what you ask.
However, it does require you have access to MSDOS.
On one of my machines which won't boot from the CDrom, I have a 350mb
partition with a minimum Windows installed on it. In there I have a
directory which I can use to boot and install from the cd for
installation.
Cheers
John
