You're welcome. SBM and XOLS have been discussed in these forums many times before, you might want to do a search for additional information.
SBM will do what you wanted, make a floppy. SBM can also be installed to the MBR of your hard disk, that way you will not even have to fool with a floppy at all.
I have used both SBM and XOSL. I like XOSL a lot more. It is more powerful and has a much cleaner user interface. The only downside is that is does need to be installed to the hard disk, it does not install to a floppy (although you use a floppy to make a backup for when some OS's like MS decide to overwrite it). However, if you don't want to fool with a boot floppy at all and have a boot manager that can boot one or more operating systems from your hard disk and also let you boot any bootable CD on that system where the BIOS does not support it, look at XOSL. I suggest that you install it to it's own small partition rather than put it on the Windows partition. Just read and follow the very detailed instructions for it (and pay no attention to suggestions that you install it to the Windows partition).
