Hello list, My set up is almost complete in booting DOS through PXELinux, but I need to create a DOS boot image from (2 )DOS floppies. I've search the archives and google but didn't find any relavant info... My current set up now works with the standard setup (with one DOS floppy): kernel: memdisk append: initrd=floppy.img ramdisk=10000 My goal to is create a floppy.img from 2 DOS floppies with the dd command or anything that works. I've tried pretty much everything that I can think of, but still not success. Here's a list that I tried: mkdiskimage floppy.img mkdossfs floppy.img mcopy a: /mnt/img syslinux dos.img If anyone can provide any suggestion/help, I'd really appreciate. Thanks, Joel

On Windows, use WinImage :) Bernd
