...pick a specific dos image (not partition). The dos images could have up to 20Megs in size. The goal is to have a configuration that will contains tools for different type of hardware. To ease the process, I want to automate image creation (floppy or harddisk), and use it with memdisk. I use the mkfloppyimg.sh script and it is working fine up until 8M in size, if I go higher than this, it doesn't work, and I can't boot the image. I did try to do the same with mkdiskimage without success, I probably miss something in the way to create the image. My question is simple, is there any recipe to cre...

I am still unable to build and boot large floppy images. 1.44, 2.88, and any size HD images work great. No problem.
