I have an IBM Thinkpad A31 with two hard drives. The Primary hard drive has Windows 2000 on it (work requirements) and the secondary hard drive (in one of the Ultra Slim bay) has Knoppix 3.3 installed on it. In the other Ultra Slim bay I can only have either a CD drive or a floppy drive. This Thinkpad does not support hot swap therefore if I use the floppy drive to boot from secondary hard drive (only which has lilo installed on it) I cannot use the CDRW drive. I would prefer to keep CDRW for obvious reasons. I do not want to install lilo on the primary hard drive either.

However, I do have a couple of PCMCIA flash cards with various capacities that I can use for booting.

Is there a way that I can transfer the boot files from Knoppix on the PCMCIA card and use that as my boot device as I would have used a floppy drive alternatively?
