Make up a file named:   /etc/grubfd.conf


root (fd0)     
install --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2  /boot/grub/stage1 (fd0) /boot/grub/stage2 
0x8000  /boot/grub/menu.lst
quit


Note:  lines 2 and 3 of the above (the install lines)  are one long line

I'm doing this from memory so there may be a glitch in it.


1) Format your floppy
2) Make directories of   /boot   and /boot/grub
3) Copy all files from your  desktop  /boot/grub  over to the 
floppy  /boot/grub

4)  Run:        grub   <   /etc/grubfd.conf
