I'm a bit confused as to which step is failing.  You've successfully
downloaded fdimage.exe, kern.flp, and mfsroot.flp?  If so, are you running
fdimage from a command prompt? If fdimage is failing from the command
prompt, do you have DOS or any other OS on your PC to try running fdimage
from? NT's WIN32 subsystem does not support all DOS programs; I've never
tried fdimage from an NT box to see if it works.

Hope this helps.
