Perhaps you're not rawriting the image to the disk.. get this in the tools
directory if you're running DOS. I just looked and it seems it has been
superseeded by fdimage.exe.
>From the README:
Note: RAWRITE.EXE is now outdated and
superceded by FDIMAGE.EXE,
a more capable tool which works under Windows 95/NT.
Hope that helps,
