You can't create emergency boot *floppies* via mkbootdisk for FC2, FC3
or RHEL4.  The 2.6 kernel is too big to fit on a floppy.  FC2 and FC3
have a "rescue CD", dunno about RHEL4 (haven't actually seen one yet).

You can use "mkbootdisk --iso" to create an ISO image of a bootable
system that can be burned to a CD using cdrecord, xcdroast or gtoaster
for FC2 and FC3 (and probably RHEL4).
