You can d/l dos bootdisks at http://www.bootdisk.com/ Hunt around for one that comes as an image file and use Linux to 'dd' it to a floppy. If you find some that are (Win).zip files, unzip-5.50-2mdk or KDE's archiver can probly handle em. If you find some that are (Win) self-extracting archives, wine can do it. 'Least the newest one can, wine-20020804-3mdk. -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas
