Thanks for your replies everyone.  I discovered that if you download the 
Win version there's an install.bat that will create the bootable floppy. 
  I believe one could also use rawrite in Linux. I haven't tried "dd" 
yet, I had this issue resolved before the reply with the "dd" suggestion 
came in. I'll try "dd" tonight when I get home.  I needed the fastest 
resolution possible this morning as I had a production 
router/firewall/gateway down.

If there is ever a doubt as to tha validity of your RAM simms/dimms I 
highly recommend memtest86.

Thanks again everyone,
E
