Can 
you get to the command prompt after booting from the CD?
<SPAN

The 
boot image will be mounted on the Ram disk as the A: drive.
You 
can make a copy of it to a floppy:
<SPAN 
class=533172816-21022001>"diskcopy a: b:"
<SPAN 
class=533172816-21022001> 
Then, 
"dd if=/dev/fd0 of=boot.image" in Linux.
<SPAN 
class=533172816-21022001><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial 
size=2> 
This 
is how to pull the image from Win98.  I don't know if it 
work
with 
win2k or not.

No 
boot.catalog on W2K cd.  Microsoft never follows 
standards.
