When you boot with the floppy, and have a bootable CD in the drive, it acts the same as if your BIOS supported booting from CD. I have also used it when the BIOS couldn't figure out how to boot from CD when the system had more then one CD-ROM drive... If you have a problem running the /exe, let me know and I will send you an image file that works with dd.
