About a year ago I posted a utility for this. It was designed to be as non
technical as possible. Basically, it was a program to generate a boot floppy
for a hard disk system; you just ran it to generate a new boot floppy and then
used that to boot the system. All the special code was in the boot sector of the
floppy.

If anyone wants a copy, let me know. If there is enough interest I'll repost it.
It is self-documenting.
