RAWRITE does not make boot disks. It is used for copying image files to
disk. You want the program mkbootdisk. If you still want to know where
RAWrite is it so on disk 1 in the /mnt/cdrom/dosutils folder Remember you
need to mount the cdrom first. Linux has a place in its directory tree for
mounting floppies. Which is /mnt/floppy. So your command should of looked
like this:

mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

What I do is format a bunch of disks for linux. Then print up some floppy
labels with bold Red lettering that these disks are linux formated. Only
rarely do you need to load a vfat directory. I hope this helps.
