+
+The <command>rawrite1</command> and <command>rawrite2</command> programs
+can be used under MS-DOS. To use these programs, first make sure that you

+Windows, or double-clicking on these programs from the Windows Explorer is
+<emphasis>not</emphasis> expected to work.
+
+</para><para>
+
+The <command>rwwrtwin</command> program runs on Windows 95, NT, 98, 2000,
+ME, XP and probably later versions. To use it you will need to unpack
+diskio.dll in the same directory.

+These tools can be found on the Official Debian CD-ROMs under the

+floppies to boot the installation system or install kernel and modules

+An AppleScript, <application>Make Debian Floppy</application>, is
+available for burning floppies from the provided disk image files. It
+can be downloaded from
+<ulink url="ftp://ftp2.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/d/de/debian-imac/MakeDebianFloppy.sit"></ulink>. To
+use it, just unstuff it on your desktop, and then drag any floppy
+image file to it. You must have Applescript installed and enabled in
+your extensions manager. Disk Copy will ask you to confirm that you
+wish to erase the floppy and proceed to write the file image to it.
+
+</para><para>
+
+You can also use the MacOS utility <command>Disk Copy</command>
+directly, or the freeware utility <command>suntar</command>. The
+<filename>root.bin</filename> file is an example of a floppy
+image. Use one of the following methods to create a floppy from the
