If you are transfering those to disk from dos/windows, you need to use the rawrite utility (rawrite writes information to a disk without regard to the format - hence overwriting the file system info that reduces a 14.4 to a 13.8) Rawrite is available from the same dir that you downloaded your bins from. If you read the install.html file, it will give you a little more detail.
