You might want to look into the Syslinux program for making Linux boot disks (it's very popular), or you could just install LILO to the disk, pointing to the kernel on the disk. Up to you.

I think I'll install lilo on it. I hope its not that big space wise.

[Craig McPherson]

Well... LILO installs to the boot sector of the floppy disk, which is space you can't normally access anyway. So it shouldn't cost you any space.
