Lacking a floppy drive could these files be put on a PC card and used
that way?
I have booted my 560x from the a card (actually I use the card to boot
to DOS) and it seems that all the startup files should work as well.
If the card was big enough you could have all the OS install files on it
and do everything from the card slot.
