<> Does anyone know of  a utility to create bootable floppy's *without*

<> Win2K or WinXP?  I'm starting to have fewer and fewer Win9x machines
<> around, and I don't carry floppy disks around with me (they
<> go bad too
<> often that way).  Those few times that I need a boot disk for things
<> (bios upgrades for example, though a few MB's can upgrade from inside
<> Windows now), I'm starting to have to hunt around for a
<> Win9x machine to
<> create it on, and I can foresee a time in the near future
<> when I won't
<> have any.  I'd hate to have to keep an old Dos machine around just to
<> create boot floppy's on.
