It is possible to download "freedos" and create all the floppys
including a boot floppy using your linux system and I have done it.

There was a bug in the freedos kernel a month or so back but they have
probably fixed their distro by now. I haven't checked. At that time you
had to get a later kernel to use with their "distribution".  If I
remember and have time I will have a look tomorrow.  If you wish I could
email you an image of a boot disk and you could dd it to a floppy.

regards,

Ken
