You'll have to create a CD that runs a floppy emulation. It is possible,
easy, etc. make it a 2.88 emu or you won't have room for the app and other
files.

Hey LaMont,

I use BartPE (http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/) at work where we are constantly
imaging machines. It's a slightly involved process to get the CD made, but
it's not that tough. If you like I can send you one of ours, just email me
your address.

Hi Lamont,
I believe the newest Ghost can create bootable CDs. Not sure though
sense I used for a a couple years now.

You can build a Bart PE image and use the Ghost 8.o plug ins as long as
you own 8.0.

This is one of the coolest programs by the way. Probably the most
powerful tech tool out there.
