That is done by a DOS batch file (nothing to do with
Linux). It's not very complicated:
---------------------------------
copy loadlin.exe a:
copy zimage a:
copy part1 a:
echo Insert disk 2 in drive A:
pause
copy part2 a:
---------------------------------

The most likely source of your problem is bad media.
Or perhaps you are running make_fd.bat from a directory
with a lot of junk in it.
