But there is one! It's packed inside the .EXE and it's an .IMA file, same concept as .IMG files really. You can extract the .IMA from the .EXE using software such as WinRAR by right clicking and selecting Extract Here (WinRAR only). It will give an error extracting, but everything still works.

I am working on providing the actual .IMG file as well as a zip for all of these disks. This should hopefully be completed in a few weeks.

Those of us who went with an ASUS G2S with Vista Home Premium pre-installed do not have the luxury of having the ability to go to a command prompt with the included restore DVD. It boots like a normal Vista DVD would boot but doesn't have an option to do anything other than wipe the drive and reinstall factory settings. Which sucks because I really need to boot into a command shell and run bcdedit as the vista partition will not boot but the partition and all it's data is still visible from linux.

therell never be a vista boot floppy cos floppys are ancient now. if you want to complain id suggest contact microsoft direct.

The .exe files are self-extracting archives, which automatically write the boot disk to a floppy. I originally created these disks as a WinImage .exe to make it as easy as possible to create a boot disk. But VMWare/VirtualPC is huge now, so most people are using these disks for virtualization projects. This is one reason why I'm working on providing the .img file for each disk - but I've gotten sidetracked with work stuff!

In the meantime, you can download an ISO image of DOS, and attach that to your virtual machines as a Virtual CD-ROM disc.
