A long time ago, I wrote a small ASM program for formatting disks and
creating bootable images under DOS but, I don't really want to do that
right now.

I do have a Linux box here so, options 1 & 2 sound the most appealing. I'll
hang a 1.2MB floppy on it and grab Tim's app (since it's already in a FTP
directory). It could be a week or two before I get around to it. I'll let
you know if I have any more problems.

Thanks Again,
