in /mit/bootkit/vs2000/README:
To make a VS2000 boot floppy, simply "dd" the appropriate image onto a
high-density floppy.
After copying the image onto the floppy, you will have to edit the
configuration file in /etc/install/config.sh. The easiest way of doing
this is to do the following as root:
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt
emacs /mnt/etc/install/config.sh
umount /mnt
Below are a set of "dd" commands that you may cut & paste:
6.0R:
dd if=/mit/bootkit/vs2000/60r.floppy of=/dev/fd0 bs=20b count=120
6.1+:
dd if=/mit/bootkit/vs2000/60r.floppy of=/dev/fd0 bs=20b count=120
************************** IMPORTANT NOTICE *************************
REMEMBER TO EDIT THE CONFIGURATION FILE
ON THE FLOPPY. THE DEFAULT IS INCORRECT.

==========================
There appears to be no difference between the two dd lines. I assume
the second line should really read:
dd if=/mit/bootkit/vs2000/61+.floppy of=/dev/fd0 bs=20b count=120
as the files available in this directory are:
-r--r--r-- 1 14640 1228800 Nov 1 1988 60r.floppy
-rw-rw-r-- 1 14640 1228800 Jun 25 08:57 61+.floppy
