I initially downloaded the boot.flp and fdimage.exe using my web browser. I followed the directions for creating the boot disk and during the creation I keep receiving a "general failure". I then used WS-FTP to retreive the files being sure to use binary mode (file size was as indicated it should be) and still received the error. I tried this from DOS on a Windows 3.11 machine and a WindowsNT machine. What am I doing wrong?
