Create boot floppy

Hi there,

I recently upgraded my debian Woody server from kernel 2.2.20 succesfully to
2.4.18. Afterwards I turned my harddisk filesystem from ext2 into ext3.

I found out later that the original boot floppy (rescue floppy) doesn't
support the ext3 file systems, so I can no longer mount my HD when I boot
from this floppy.

How do I make a new floppy to boot from?

Thanks a lot!

Cheers,

Mike.
